4th federal electoral district of Chihuahua

The 4th federal electoral district of Chihuahua () is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of nine such districts in the state of Chihuahua.

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 toward the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the first region.

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Alejandro Pérez Cuéllar of the Ecologist Green Party of Mexico (PVEM).

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, the district covers 349 electoral precincts () in the north of Ciudad Juárez.

Ciudad Juárez also serves as its head town (), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied. The district reported a population of 378,104 in the 2020 Census.

Between 2017 and 2022, the 4th district covered the northern portion of Ciudad Juárez.

Under the 2005 districting scheme, the district covered the southern portion of Ciudad Juárez, which also served as the head town.

1996–2005

Chihuahua lost its 10th district in the 1996 redistricting process. The 4th district covered almost exactly the same area as in the 2005 configuration.

1979–1996

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, Chihuahua's seat allocation rose from six to ten. The 4th district covered a portion of the Ciudad Juárez urban area and the rural portion of the municipality of Juárez.
