Aspecial election for District 68 of theRhode Island House of Representatives was held on March 5, 2019. A primary took place on February 5, 2019. The filing deadline for candidates was December 28, 2018.^[5]

The special election was called after Representative-electLaufton Ascencao (D) announced that he would not take the oath of office because he had lied to local Democratic town committee members about producing a six-page mailer.^[6] He also produced a fake expenses invoice for the mailer and sent it to the committee members. When he announced his decision not to take office, Ascencao said the brochure was completed but not in time for it to be published and mailed prior to the election, so there were no actual expenses incurred for it.^[7]

Entering the special election,Kenneth Marshall held the District 68 seat as a Democratic member. He was first elected in 2012 and re-elected in 2014 and 2016; he did not run for re-election in 2018 after acknowledging in July 2018 that he had not reported more than $10,000 in campaign contributions. However, Secretary of State Nellie Gorbea (D) decided in December 2018 that Marshall's term would be extended until the special election had passed.^[8]
