4th district in 2005–2017

The 4th federal electoral district of Hidalgo (Spanish : Distrito electoral federal 04 de Hidalgo) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of seven such districts in the state of Hidalgo. ^[1]

It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative period 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 electoral region. ^{[2] [3] [a]}

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Alma Lidia de la Vega Sánchez of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena). ^{[5] [6]}

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, ^[7] the district is located in the east of the state and its head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Tulancingo. ^[1] It covers 193 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across ten of the state's municipalities: ^{[8] [9]}

• Acatlán, Acaxochitlán, Agua Blanca de Iturbide, Cuautepec de Hinojosa, Huehuetla, Metepec, San Bartolo Tutotepec, Tulantepec de Lugo Guerrero, Tenango de Doria and Tulancingo de Bravo.

The district reported a population of 417,765 in the 2020 Census. ^[1]

2017–2022

Between 2017 and 2002, the 4th district covered the same 10 municipalities as in the 2023 plan. ^{[13] [14]}

2005–2017

Under the 2005 districting plan, the district covered 11 municipalities: ^{[15] [16]}

• Acatlán, Acaxochitlán, Agua Blanca de Iturbide, Huasca de Ocampo, Huehuetla, Metepec, Mineral del Monte, Omitlán de Juárez, San Bartolo Tutotepec, Tenango de Doria and Tulancingo de Bravo.

1996–2005

The 1996 redistricting process created Hidalgo's 7th district. A slightly different group of 11 municipalities made up the 4th district between 1996 and 2005: ^{[17] [16]}

• Acatlán, Acaxochitlán, Agua Blanca de Iturbide, Huasca de Ocampo, Huehuetla, Metepec, Omitlán de Juárez, San Bartolo Tutotepec, Tulantepec de Lugo Guerrero, Tenango de Doria and Tulancingo de Bravo.

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, Hidalgo's seat allocation rose from five to six. ^[10] The 4th district's head town was at Huejutla and it comprised 13 municipalities in the north of the state: ^[18]

• Atlapexco, Calnali, Huautla, Huazalingo, Huejutla, Jaltocán, Lolotla, Molango, Orizatlán, Tepehuacán, Tlanchinol, Xochiatipan and Yahualica.
