Veracruz, from 2024 to 2027

Xalapa, the capital of Veracruz, produced one of the two closest races among the 300 federal districts in 2024: in district 10, Sigamos Haciendo Historia won by a margin of 0.2 points over the PAN's alliance. It was the exception in a state where the Morena-led coalition took 17 of the 19 districts, with margins of up to 60.1 points in Minatitlán (14) and 59.2 in Coatzacoalcos (11), and Morena, running without allies in Emiliano Zapata (8), won one more. Fuerza y Corazón por México carried only Boca del Río (4), by 4.1 points.

By party, Morena gathered 51.1% of the valid vote, its fourth-highest share in the country; the PAN followed with 16.4% and the PRI with 9.6%, and none of the other four topped Movimiento Ciudadano's 8.7%. The state's four Indigenous districts, seated in Pánuco, Álamo Temapache, Papantla and Zongolica, all went to the coalition. Turnout was 59.8%, 0.7 points off the national rate, and the electoral roll, with 6,112,811 people in October 2026, is the fourth largest in the country.

In 2027 Veracruz has neither a governor's race nor municipal elections, since its councils were renewed in 2025: locally, only the congress is on the ballot, with 50 seats, the third largest of those elected that day, behind only the State of Mexico and Mexico City. Alongside it, Veracruz voters elect 19 federal deputies, the fourth-largest delegation in the country, after those of the State of Mexico, Mexico City and Jalisco.

What is elected

Veracruz does not elect municipal councils in 2027, as they were elected in 2025: locally, it only renews its congress.
