The tenth federal electoral district of Chiapas (Distrito electoral federal 10 de Chiapas) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 13 such districts in the state of Chiapas.
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.
Under the 2023 districting plan, which will be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[1] the district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Villaflores.
The tenth district comprised the municipalities of Ángel Albino Corzo, Cintalapa, Jiquipilas, La Concordia, Montecristo de Guerrero, Villa Corzo and Villaflores.[2]
The head town was the city of Villaflores.
Between 1996 and 2005, the tenth district was located in a different region of Chiapas, closer to the Guatemalan border. It covered the municipalities of Ángel Albino Corzo, Amatenango de la Frontera, Bejucal de Ocampo, Bella Vista, Chicomuselo, El Porvenir, La Grandeza, Mazapa de Madero, Motozintla and Siltepec.[3]
The tenth district of Chiapas was created in 1996. Between 1979 and 1996, Chiapas only had nine federal electoral districts. The tenth district elected its first deputy, to the 57th Congress, in 1997.
