2018
Elections for the Massachusetts House of Representatives took place in 2018. The semi-closed primary election took place on September 4, 2018, and the general election was held on November 6, 2018. The candidate filing deadline was June 5, 2018.
No candidates filed for the Democratic or Republican primary ballots. Write-in candidates Mary Kate Feeney, Michael Gatlin, Maria Robinson, and Mark Tilden competed in the Democratic primary. Thomas Blandford was the only write-in candidate in the Republican primary. To appear on the general election ballot, candidates had to receive 150 votes and more votes than other candidates in the race. Robinson was the only candidate to meet both requirements, so her name was the only one to appear on the general election ballot.[1]
