Ninth federal electoral district of Veracruz
The ninth federal electoral district of Veracruz (Distrito electoral federal 09 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 ninth district comprises 18 municipalities surrounding the state capital, Xalapa, to the west:[3]
- Acajete, Ayahualulco, Banderilla, Coacoatzintla, Coatepec, Cosautlán de Carvajal, Ixhuacán de los Reyes, Jilotepec, Las Minas, Las Vigas de Ramírez, Perote, Rafael Lucio, Tatatila, Teocelo, Tlacolulan, Tlalnelhuayocan, Villa Aldama and Xico.
The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Coatepec.[4]
Previous districting scheme
Between 2017 and 2022, the 9th district comprised 16 municipalities in the same region of the state: the same group as in the 2022 plan but without Las Minas and Villa Aldama, both of which were assigned to the 7th district. Its head town was at Coatepec.[5]
