2nd federal electoral district of Chiapas
Template:Short descriptionTemplate:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox Mexican federal electoral district
The 2nd federal electoral district of Chiapas (Template:Langx) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 13 such districts in the state of Chiapas.[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 the district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the third region.[2][3]
The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Karina Margarita del Río Zenteno of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).[4][5]
District territory
Under the 2022 districting plan adopted by the National Electoral Institute (INE), which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[6] the second district comprises 121 electoral precincts (Script error: No such module "Lang".) across 16 municipalities:[7][8]
- Bochil, El Bosque, Chalchihuitán, Chenalhó, Huitiupán, Ixtapa, Jitotol, Larrainzar, Mitontic, Pantelhó, Pueblo Nuevo Solistahuacán, Simojovel, Soyaló, Ixtapa, San Andrés Duraznal and Santiago el Pinar.
The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Bochil. The district reported a population of 400,254 in the 2020 Census.[1] With Indigenous and Afrodescendent inhabitants accounting for over 71% of that total, it is classified by the National Electoral Institute as an indigenous district.[7]Template:Efn

- The districting scheme in force from 1978 to 1996 was the result of the 1977 electoral reforms, which increased the number of single-member seats in the Chamber of Deputies from 196 to 300. Under that plan, Chiapas's seat allocation rose from six to nine.[15] The second district had its head town at San Cristóbal de Las Casas and it covered 13 municipalities.[16]
