Second federal electoral district of Chiapas
The second federal electoral district of Chiapas (Distrito electoral federal 02 de Chiapas) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 13 such districts in the state of Chiapas.
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.
The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Bochil.[1]
