Chiapas under the 2017–2022 districting scheme
1st district in 2005–2017

The 1st federal electoral district of Chiapas () is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 13 such districts in the state of Chiapas.

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 third region.

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Carlos Morelos Rodríguez of the Labour Party (PT).

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 elections, the 1st district covers 129 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across eight municipalities in north-eastern Chiapas:

  • Catazajá, La Libertad, Palenque, Sabanilla, Salto de Agua, Tila, Tumbalá and Yajalón.

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Palenque. The district reported a population of 410,229 in the 2020 Census. With Indigenous and Afrodescendent inhabitants accounting for over 71% of that total, it is classified by the INE as an indigenous district.

2017–2022 :From 2017 to 2022 the district had the same configuration as under the 2023 plan.

2005–2017 :The 2005 district covered the same municipalities as under the 2023 and 2017 plans but also included Chilón. The head town was the city of Palenque.

1996–2005 :Between 1996 and 2005, the district had exactly the same composition as under the 2005 plan.

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, Chiapas's seat allocation rose from six to nine. The first district had its head town at Tuxtla Gutiérrez and it covered seven municipalities.
