It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative period 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.[1][2]

The fifth district was created by the 2005 redistricting process[3] and, accordingly, it elected its first deputy in the 2006 general election.
