Second federal electoral district of Querétaro explained

The second federal electoral district of Querétaro (Distrito electoral federal 02 de Querétaro) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of six such districts in the state of Querétaro.[1]

It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative period, by means of the first-past-the-post system. Votes cast in this district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies; since 2024, those elected from the fifth region.[2] [3]

District territory

Under the 2022 districting plan, which assigned Querétaro an additional seat in Congress and will be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[4] the second district covers two of the state's 18 municipalities: San Juan del Río and Amealco de Bonfil. The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of San Juan del Río.[5]

Previous districting scheme

Between 2017 and 2022, when the state contained only five federal electoral districts, the second district covered San Juan del Río, Amealco de Bonfil and the municipality of Tequisquiapan.[6]
