10th federal electoral district of Jalisco

The 10th 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.

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Omar Antonio Borboa Becerra of the National Action Party (PAN).

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 10th district is located in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area and comprises 160 electoral precincts () across the municipality of Zapopan.

The head town (), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Zapopan. The district reported a population of 440,616 in the 2020 Census.
