The 2nd federal electoral district of Colima () is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of two such districts in the state of Colima.
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.
The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Gricelda Valencia de la Mora of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).
District territory 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 2nd district covers 170 electoral precincts () across five of the state's municipalities: Armería, Ixtlahuacán, Manzanillo, Minatitlán and Tecomán.
The district's head town (), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is Valle de las Garzas near the city of Manzanillo. The district reported a population of 350,811 in the 2020 census.

1996–2005 From 1996 to 2005, the 2nd district covered the same five municipalities as in the 2017 and 2023 schemes.
1978–1996 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. Colima's seat allocation, however, remained unchanged. The district had its head town at the city of Manzanillo and it comprised the same five municipalities as in the 1996, 2017 and 2023 schemes.
