The 6th federal electoral district of Puebla (Spanish : Distrito electoral federal 06 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]

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 fourth region. [2] [3]

The current member for the district, re-elected in the 2024 general election, is Alejandro Carvajal Hidalgo  [ es ] of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena). [4] [5]

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. [6] The 6th district covers 145 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) in the municipality of Puebla. [7] [8] [a]

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the state capital, the city of Puebla. The district reported a population of 420,886 in the 2020 Census. [1]
