Yucatán under the 2017–2022 districting plan
2nd district in 2005–2017

The 2nd federal electoral district of Yucatán () is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of six such districts in the state of Yucatán.

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 Jorge Luis Sánchez Reyes of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).

District territory

Yucatán gained a congressional seat in the 2023 redistricting process carried out by the National Electoral Institute (INE). Under the new districting plan, which will be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections, the reconfigured 2nd district is located in the north-central part of the state. It comprises 248 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across 48 municipalities:

  • Acanceh, Baca, Bokobá, Buctzotz, Cacalchén, Cansahcab, Cenotillo, Chicxulub Pueblo, Conkal, Cuzamá, Dzemul, Dzidzantún, Dzilam de Bravo, Dzilam González, Dzoncauich, Hocabá, Hoctún, Homún, Huhí, Ixil, Izamal, Kantunil, Mocochá, Motul, Muxupip, Progreso, Sanahcat, Seyé, Sinanché, Sotuta, Sudzal, Suma, Tahmek, Tecoh, Tekal de Venegas, Tekantó, Telchac Pueblo, Telchac Puerto, Temax, Tepakán, Teya, Timucuy, Tixkokob, Tixpéhual, Tunkás, Xocchel, Yaxkukul and Yobaín.

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the port city of Progreso. The district had a population of 392,305 in the 2020 Census, and with Indigenous and Afrodescendent inhabitants accounting for over 76% of that total, Yucatán's 2nd – like all the state's electoral districts, both local and federal – is classified by the INE as an indigenous district.

2017–2022 :Between 1996 and 2022, Yucatán had five federal electoral districts. Under the 2017 scheme, the 2nd district's head town was at Progreso and it covered 36 municipalities in the north-west of the state: :*Acanceh, Baca, Bokobá, Cacalchén, Cansahcab, Celestún, Chicxulub Pueblo, Conkal, Dzemul, Hocabá, Hoctún, Hunucma, Ixil, Kanasín, Kinchil, Mocochá, Motul, Muxupip, Progreso, Samahil, Seyé, Sinanché, Suma, Tahmek, Tekantó, Telchac Pueblo, Telchac Puerto, Tetiz, Teya, Timucuy, Tixkokob, Tixpéhual, Ucú, Xocchel, Yaxkukul and Yobaín.

2005–2017 :Under the 2005 districting scheme, the district covered 39 municipalities in the centre and north of the state and had its head town at Progreso.

1996–2005 :Between 1996 and 2005, the district's head town was at Progreso and it covered 33 municipalities in the north-west region of the state.

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, Yucatán's district allocation rose from three to four. The 2nd district had its head town at Ticul, some 100 km south of the state capital, Mérida, and it covered 39 municipalities in that region of the state.
