Fifth federal electoral district of Veracruz
The fifth federal electoral district of Veracruz (Distrito electoral federal 05 de Veracruz) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 19 such districts in the state of Veracruz.[a]
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.
District territory
Veracruz lost a congressional district in the 2022 redistricting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 elections.[2] The reconfigured fifth district covers the municipalities of Poza Rica, Tamiahua, Tihuatlán and Tuxpan in the north of the state.[3]
The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Poza Rica de Hidalgo.[4]
Previous districting scheme
Between 2017 and 2022, the fifth district still had its head town at Poza Rica but comprised only three municipalities: Poza Rica, Coatzintla and Tihuatlán.[5]
