The 6th federal electoral district of Michoacán (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 06 de Michoacán) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 11 such districts in the state of Michoacán.[1]

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 fifth region.[2][3]

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is José Luis Téllez Marín of the Labour Party (PT).[4][5]

District territory

Michoacán lost its 12th district in the 2023 districting process carried out by the National Electoral Institute (INE). Under the new districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[6] the 6th district covers 265 precincts (secciones electorales) across 13 municipalities in the north-east of the state:[7]

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Ciudad Hidalgo. The district reported a population of 457,521 in the 2020 Census.[1]
