The 11th federal electoral district of Guanajuato (Spanish : Distrito electoral federal 11 de Guanajuato) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 15 such districts in the state of Guanajuato. [1]

Contents

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 second region. [2] [3]

Suspended in 1930, [a] Guanajuato's 11th was re-established as part of the 1977 political reforms. The restored district returned its first deputy in the 1979 mid-term election. [7]

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Miguel Ángel Salim Alle  [ es ] of the National Action Party (PAN). [8] [9]

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, [10] Guanajuato's 11th district covers 171 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across the southern portion of the municipality of León. [11] [b]

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of León. The district reported a population of 430,097 in the 2020 Census. [1]

2017–2022

Between 2017 and 2022, the 11th district's head town was at León and it covered 124 precincts in the south of the municipality. [14] [13]

2005–2017

Under the 2005 plan, Guanajuato had only 14 districts. This district's head town was at Pénjamo and it covered five municipalities in the south and south-west of the state: [15] [16]

1996–2005

In the 1996 scheme, under which Guanajuato was assigned 15 seats, the district had its head town at Pénjamo and it comprised three municipalities: [17] [16]
  • Abasolo, Huanímaro and Pénjamo.

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, Guanajuato's seat allocation rose from 9 to 13. [12] The new 11th district's head town was at León and it covered a part of that city. [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 3rd, 5th and 6th districts cover the remainder of the municipality.
