The Sixth Federal Electoral District of Mexico City (VI Distrito Electoral Federal de la Ciudad de México; previously "of the Federal District") is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for the purpose of elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of the 22 currently operational districts in Mexico City.[1]

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.

District territory[edit]

Under the 2023 districting plan, which will be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[2] the Sixth District covers the whole of the borough (alcaldía) of Magdalena Contreras and the eastern, more urban part of Álvaro Obregón.[3][1]

Previous districting schemes[edit]

Under the 2005 districting scheme, the Sixth District covered a roughly rectangular area in the north-east of the borough (delegación) of Gustavo A. Madero, at the other end of the city.[4]

Between 1996 and 2005, the Sixth District covered roughly the same area of Gustavo A. Madero.[5]
