The 9th federal electoral district of Oaxaca (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 09 de Oaxaca) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 10 such districts in the state of Oaxaca.[2]
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.[3][4]
The current member for the district, re-elected in the 2024 general election, is Carmen Bautista Peláez of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).[5][6]
District territory
Under the 2022 districting plan adopted by the National Electoral Institute (INE), which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[7] the 9th district covers 193 precincts (secciones electorales) across 42 municipalities in the state's coastal region.[8][1][a]
The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the resort city of Puerto Escondido in the district of Juquila. The district reported a population of 403,267 in the 2020 Census and, with Indigenous and Afrodescendent inhabitants accounting for over 78% of that total, it is classified by the INE as an indigenous district.[2][1][b]
