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 fourth region.[2][3]

The current member for the district, re-elected in the 2024 general election, is Alejandro Aguilar López of the Labour Party (PT).[4][5]

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] Tlaxcala's 1st comprises 239 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across 19 of the state's municipalities:[7][8]
