Coahuila under the 2017–2022 districting plan

The 7th federal electoral district of Coahuila () is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of eight such districts in the state of Coahuila.

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 second region.

Suspended in 1930, the 7th district was re-established as part of the 1977 political reforms and was first contested in the 1979 mid-term election.

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Antonio Lorenzo Castro Villarreal of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).

District territory

In its 2022 districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections, the National Electoral Institute (INE) assigned Coahuila an additional district. The reconfigured 7th district covers 223 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) in the more rural portion of the municipality of Saltillo.

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the state capital, the city of Saltillo. The district reported a population of 441,607 in the 2020 Census.
