Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates An election to the Carmarthen Rural District Council in Wales was held in April 1919. It was preceded by the 1913 election due to the scheduled 1916 election being postponed due to the First World War, and was followed by the 1922 election. Eleven members were returned unopposed and, in addition, the retiring member was returned for Llandawke and Llansadurnen after no nominations were received. The successful candidates were also elected to the Carmarthen Board of Guardians.
