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 third region.[2][3]

The third district was created as part of the 2005 redistricting process and was first contested in the 2006 general election.

District territory

Under the 2022 districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[4] the third district covers the entirety of the municipality of Isla Mujeres and 321 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) in the neighbouring municipality of Benito Juárez.[5]

The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Cancún, the municipal seat of Benito Juárez.[1]
