2nd district in 2005–2017 (excluding Ixtlahuacán)

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 current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Gricelda Valencia de la Mora of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).[4][5]

District territory

Under the 2023 districting plan adopted by the National Electoral Institute (INE), which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[6] the 2nd district covers 170 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across five of the state's municipalities:[7]

The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is Valle de las Garzas near the city of Manzanillo. The district reported a population of 350,811 in the 2020 Census.[1]

2017–2022

As under the 2023 plan: the five municipalities of Armería, Ixtlahuacán, Manzanillo, Minatitlán and Tecomán. The district's head town was at Manzanillo.[10][11]

2005–2017

Between 2005 and 2017, the district covered only four municipalities: Ixtlahuacán was assigned to the 1st district.[12][13]

1996–2005

From 1996 to 2005, the 2nd district covered the same five municipalities as in the 2017 and 2023 schemes.[14][13]

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. Colima's seat allocation, however, remained unchanged.[8] The district had its head town at the city of Manzanillo and it comprised the same five municipalities as in the 1996, 2017 and 2023 schemes.[15]
