Tenth federal electoral district of Guerrero

The tenth federal electoral district of Guerrero (Distrito electoral federal 10 de Guerrero) is a defunct federal electoral district of the Mexican state of Guerrero.

During its existence, the tenth district returned one deputy to the Chamber of Deputies for each of the 51st to 59th sessions of Congress. Votes cast in the district also counted towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the country's electoral regions. ^{[1] [2]}

Created as part of the 1977 political reforms, ^[3] it was first contested in the 1979 mid-term election and elected its last deputy in the 2003 mid-terms. It was dissolved during the National Electoral Institute's 2005 redistricting process because the state's population no longer warranted ten districts. ^[4]

Territory

1996–2005

In its final form, the tenth district covered the urban core of the municipality of Acapulco. The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations were gathered together and collated, was the port city of Acapulco. The remainder of the municipality was assigned to the ninth district. ^{[5] [6]}

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, Guerrero's district allocation rose from six to ten. ^[7] The newly created tenth district had its head town at Chilapa de Álvarez in the state's Mountain region and it comprised the municipalities of Ahuacuotzingo, Atenango del Río, Copalillo, Cualac, Chilapa, Huamuxtitlán, Huitzuco, Mártir de Cuilapán, Olinalá, Xochihuehuetlán and Zitlala. ^[8]
