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 first region.[2][3]

Under the 2022 districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[4] the first district covers 203 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) in the eastern urban portion of the municipality of Mexicali. The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the state capital, the city of Mexicali.[5][1][a]
