Incumbent Peter C. Cavanagh, who was appointed in May 2017 to fill the vacancy left when Tom Appleton resigned his seat, won reelection.[6][7][8] This was a special election for two years, as Appeton's term would have ended in 2020.[9]
Democratic primary
No Democratic primary was held, as no candidates filed to run.
Republican primary
Due to the time the vacancy was created being so close to the May 6 filing date for candidates to make the ballot,[2][10] Cavanaugh was not on the ballot, and instead ran as a write-in candidate.[10]
