Puebla's districts in 2017–2022

The 13th federal electoral district of Puebla (Spanish : Distrito electoral federal 13 de Puebla) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 16 such districts in the state of Puebla. ^[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 fourth region. ^{[2] [3]}

Suspended in 1930, ^[a] Puebla's 13th 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, re-elected in the 2024 general election, is Mario Miguel Carrillo Cubillas  [ es ] of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena). ^{[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, Puebla's congressional seat allocation rose from 15 to 16. ^[10] The 13th district is in the west of Puebla and covers 167 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across 16 of the state's municipalities: ^{[11] [12]}

• Acteopan, Atlixco, Atzitzihuacán, Calpan, Cohuecán, Coronango, Huaquechula, Juan C. Bonilla, Nealtican, Santa Isabel Cholula, Tepemaxalco, Tepexco, Tianguismanalco, Tilapa, Tlapanalá and Tochimilco.

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Atlixco. The district reported a population of 397,346 in the 2020 Census. ^[1]

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. Jiménez Merino resigned his seat on 1 February 2005 and was replaced for the remainder of his term by his alternate, Campos Córdova.
