Jalisco's districts in 2017–2022

The 19th federal electoral district of Jalisco (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 19 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 19th 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 Clara Cárdenas Galván 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 19th district covers the south of the state, bordering Colima and Michoacán and the southern shore of Lake Chapala. It comprises 179 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across 20 of the state's 125 municipalities:[10]

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Ciudad Guzmán, the municipal seat of Zapotlán el Grande. The district reported a population of 413,620 in the 2020 Census.[1]

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 19th district's head town was at Tamazula de Gordiano and it covered 16 municipalities:[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. ^ Esquer Gutiérrez resigned his seat on 3 December 2018 and was replaced for the remainder of his term by his alternate, Del Toro Pérez.
