The 6th federal electoral district of Querétaro (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 06 de Querétaro) 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 Querétaro.[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 6th district was created in 2022 because of shifting population dynamics and first contended in the 2024 general election. The district's inaugural member is Luis Humberto Fernández Fuentes of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).[4][5]
