14th federal electoral district of Jalisco

The 14th federal electoral district of Jalisco () is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 20 such districts in the state of Jalisco.

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.

Suspended in 1930, the 14th district was re-established as part of the 1977 electoral reforms. The restored district returned its first deputy in the 1979 mid-term election.

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Marcela Michel López of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).

District territory

Under the 2023 districting plan adopted by the National Electoral Institute (INE), which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections, Jalisco's 14th district is located in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area and comprises 80 electoral precincts () in the municipality of Tlajomulco de Zúñiga.

The head town (), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the municipal seat, the city of Tlajomulco de Zúñiga. The district reported a population of 440,447 in the 2020 Census.

1978–1996

The districting scheme in force from 1978 to 1996 was the result of the 1977 electoral reforms, which increased the number of single-member seats in the Chamber of Deputies from 196 to 300. Under that plan, Jalisco's seat allocation rose from 13 to 20. The restored 14th district's head town was at Guadalajara and it covered a portion of the city's sector Hidalgo.
