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 second region.[2][3]

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Humberto Ambriz Delgadillo of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI).[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 1st district covers 150 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across ten of the state's 11 municipalities:[7]

The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Jesús María. The district reported a population of 482,911 in the 2020 Census.[1]

2017–2022

In the 2017 scheme, the 1st district covered the same ten municipalities.[11][10]

2005–2017

Under the 2005 redistricting process, the district was made up of the same ten municipalities.[12][13]

1996–2005

Aguascalientes gained a congressional seat in 1996. The reconfigured 1st district acquired the composition – the entire state, minus the capital and its municipality – it would have in the later 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. Aguascalientes's seat allocation, however, remained unchanged at two.[8] The 1st district covered the city of Aguascalientes, with its surrounding municipality assigned to the 2nd district.[15]
