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 this district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the third region.[1][2]

District territory

edit

Under the 2022 districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[3] the eighth district covers eight municipalities in the central part of the state.[a] The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the state capital, the city of Oaxaca de Juárez.[6]

With Indigenous and Afro-Mexican inhabitants accounting for over 43% of its population, it is officially deemed an indigenous district.[6]

Previous districting schemes

edit

Under the scheme in force from 2017 to 2022, the district had its head town at the city of Oaxaca and it covered seven municipalities.[7]

2005–2017

Between 2005 and 2017, the eighth district's head town was at the city of Oaxaca and it comprised four municipalities.[8]

1996–2005

Between 1996 and 2017, Oaxaca's seat allocation was increased to 11. Under the 1996 districting plan, the head town was moved to the city of Oaxaca.[9]

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, Oaxaca's seat allocation rose from nine to ten.[10] The eighth district had its head town at Santiago Pinotepa Nacional in the state's Costa Chica region.[11]
