The seventh federal electoral district of Hidalgo (Distrito electoral federal 07 de Hidalgo) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of the seven currently operational districts in the state of Hidalgo.
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. As of 2024, votes cast in the district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the fourth electoral region.
Suspended in 1943, the seventh district was re-established as part of the 1996 redistricting process. The restored district elected its first deputy, to the 57th Congress, in the 1997 mid-term election.
District territory
Under the 2022 districting plan, the seventh district covers the southeastern portion of Hidalgo, bordering on the states of Mexico, Tlaxcala and Puebla. It comprises ten municipalities: Almoloya, Apan, Emiliano Zapata, Tepeapulco, Tizayuca, Tlanalapa, Tolcayuca, Villa de Tezontepec, Zapotlán de Juárez and Zempoala. Its head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Tepeapulco.
