Durango under the 2017–2022 districting plan
The 2nd federal electoral district of Durango (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 02 de Durango) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of four such districts in the state of Durango.
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 first region.
The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Betzabé Martínez Arango. Originally elected for the Labour Party (PT), she switched allegiance to the National Regeneration Movement (Morena) on 19 September 2024.
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, the 2nd district covers 335 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across 10 municipalities in the north of the state:
- Gómez Palacio, Hidalgo, Indé, Mapimí, Ocampo, El Oro, San Bernardo, San Luis del Cordero, San Pedro del Gallo and Tlahualilo.
The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Gómez Palacio. The district reported a population of 454,368 in the 2020 Census.

2017–2022
Between 2017 and 2022, the 2nd district's head town was at Gómez Palacio and it covered 10 municipalities in practically the same configuration as in 2023: Gómez Palacio, Hidalgo, Indé, Mapimí, Ocampo, El Oro, San Bernardo, San Pedro del Gallo and Tlahualilo, as in 2023, but with San Luis del Cordero replaced by Guanaceví.
2005–2017
Under the 2005 plan, Durango's single-member district count fell from five to four. This district's head town was at Gómez Palacio and it covered two municipalities: Gómez Palacio and Lerdo.
1996–2005
In the 1996 scheme, Durango's seats were reduced from six to five. The 2nd district had its head town at Gómez Palacio and it comprised four municipalities: Gómez Palacio, Hidalgo, Mapimí and Tlahualilo.
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, Durango's seat allocation rose from four to six. The reconfigured 2nd district covered two municipalities: Gómez Palacio (head town) and Tlahualilo.
