The seventh federal electoral district of Veracruz (Distrito electoral federal 07 de Veracruz) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 19 such districts in the state of Veracruz.[a]

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.

District territory[edit]

Veracruz lost a congressional district in the 2022 redistricting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 elections.[2] The reconfigured seventh district covers nine municipalities in the central region of the state:[3]

The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Martínez de la Torre.[4]

Previous districting schemes[edit]

2017–2022

Between 2017 and 2022, Veracruz was assigned 20 electoral districts. The seventh district comprised nine municipalities in broadly the same region of the state: Altotonga, Atzalán, Jalacingo, Las Minas, Martínez de la Torre, Misantla, Tenochtitlán, Tlapacoyan and Villa Aldama. Its head town was at Martínez de la Torre.[5]

2005–2017

Veracruz's allocation of congressional seats fell to 21 in the 2005 redistricting process.[1] Between 2005 and 2017 the 7th district had its head town at Martínez de la Torre and it covered nine municipalities: Atzalán, Jalacingo, Landero y Coss, Martínez de la Torre, Misantla, Nautla, Tenochtitlán, Tlapacoyan and San Rafael.[6]

1996–2005

Under the 1996 districting plan, which allocated Veracruz 23 districts, the head town was at Martínez de Alatorre.[7]

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, Veracruz's seat allocation rose from 15 to 23.[8] The 7th district had its head town at Coatepec and it covered the municipalities of Actopan, Alto Lucero, La Antigua, Apazapán, Banderilla, Coatepec, Emiliano Zapata, Jalcomulco, Paso de Ovejas, Puente Nacional, Rafael Lucio, Tlalnelhuayocan, Úrsulo Galván and Xico.[9]
