Tabasco's districts in 2017–2022

The 1st federal electoral district of Tabasco (Spanish : Distrito electoral federal 01 de Tabasco) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of six such districts in the state of Tabasco. ^[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 third region. ^{[2] [3]}

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Julio Ernesto Gutiérrez Bocanegra of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena). ^{[4] [5]}

District territory

Under the 2022 districting plan adopted by the National Electoral Institute (INE), which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections, ^[6] Tabasco's 1st district covers the eastern portion of the state and comprises 213 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across five of the state's municipalities: ^[7]

• Balancán, Emiliano Zapata, Jonuta, Macuspana and Tenosique.

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Macuspana. The district reported a population of 342,346 in the 2020 Census. ^[1]

2017–2022

From 2017 to 2022, the district's head town was at Macuspana and it covered the same five municipalities as in the 2022 plan. ^{[11] [10]}

2005–2017

Under the 2005 plan, the district had the same configuration as in the 2017 and 2022 schemes. ^{[12] [13]}

1996–2005

Tabasco gained its 6th district in the 1996 redistricting process. The 1st covered the north, north-east and east of the state, comprising the municipalities of Paraíso, Centla, Jonuta, Emiliano Zapata, Balancán and Tenosique. Its head town was at Frontera. ^{[14] [13]}

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, Tabasco's seat allocation rose from three to five. ^[8] The 1st district comprised the municipality of Centro, including the state capital, Villahermosa. ^[15]
