Previous districting schemes
2017–2022
Between 2017 and 2022, Veracruz was assigned 20 electoral districts. The 15th district comprised 10 municipalities in the same region as at present: Alpatláhuac, Atzacan, Calcahualco, Coscomatepec, Ixhuatlancillo, Ixtaczoquitlán, Mariano Escobedo, Orizaba, La Perla and Río Blanco. Its head town was the city of Orizaba. [7]
2005–2017
Veracruz's allocation of congressional seats fell to 21 in the 2005 redistricting process. [2] Between 2005 and 2017 the 15th district had its head town at Orizaba and it comprised 13 municipalities: Alpatlahuac, Aquila, Calcahualco, Coscomatepec, Chocamán, Ixhuatlancillo, Maltrata, Mariano Escobedo, Nogales, Orizaba, La Perla, Río Blanco and Tomatlán. [8] [9]
1996–2005
Under the 1996 districting plan, which allocated Veracruz 23 districts, the head town was moved to Orizaba. [10] [9]
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, Veracruz's seat allocation rose from 15 to 23. [11] The 15th district had its head town at Coatzacoalcos in the south of the state and it covered the municipalities of Coatzacoalcos, Ixhuatlán del Sureste and Moloacán. [12]
