Jalisco's districts in 2017–2022

The 16th federal electoral district of Jalisco (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 16 de Jalisco) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 20 such districts in the state of Jalisco.[1]

It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative session 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 first region.[2][3]

Suspended in 1930,[a] the 16th district was re-established as part of the 1977 electoral reforms. The restored district returned its first deputy in the 1979 mid-term election.

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Alberto Maldonado Chavarín of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).[7][8]

District territory

Under the 2023 districting plan adopted by the National Electoral Institute (INE), which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[9] Jalisco's 16th district is located in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area and comprises 125 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) in the east of the municipality of Tlaquepaque.[10][b]

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Tlaquepaque. The district reported a population of 418,419 in the 2020 Census.[1]

2017–2022

Jalisco regained its 20th congressional seat in the 2017 redistricting process. The 16th district's head town was at Tlaquepaque and it covered 115 precincts in the east of that municipality.[14][13]

2005–2017

Under the 2005 plan, Jalisco had 19 districts. This district's head town was at Tlaquepaque and it covered 130 precincts in the centre of the municipality.[15][16]

1996–2005

In the 1996 scheme, under which Jalisco lost a single-member seat, the district had its head town at Tlaquepaque and it comprised the entire municipality.[17][16]

1978–1996

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, Jalisco's seat allocation rose from 13 to 20.[11] The restored 16th district's head town was at Guadalajara, the state capital, and it covered parts of the city's Libertad and Reforma sectors.[18]

Notes

  1. ^ An amendment to Article 52 of the Constitution in 1928 changed the original provision of "one deputy per 60,000 inhabitants" to "one deputy per 100,000";[4][5] as a result, the size of the Chamber of Deputies fell from 281 in the 1928 election to 171 in 1934.[6]
  2. ^ The rest of Tlaquepaque (85 precincts) is assigned to the 13th district.
  3. ^ Bañales Castro sat as an independent after 18 March 2003.
