The 40th federal electoral district of the State of Mexico (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 40 del Estado de México) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 40 such districts in the State of Mexico.[1]

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 fifth region.[2][3]

The 37th to 40th districts were created by the Federal Electoral Institute (IFE) in its 2005 redistricting process and were first contested in the 2006 general election.[4]

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Azucena Huerta Romero of the Ecologist Green Party of Mexico (PVEM).[5][6]
