Trump-backed Rep. Celeste Maloy wins GOP nomination in Utah's 2nd district
Fox News
Rep. Celeste Maloy, R-Utah won the Republican primary in Utah's 2nd congressional district on Tuesday. She will take on the Democratic nominee in November. The seat has been solidly red and will likely be won by Republicans.
Utah's 2nd district, which includes cities such as Cedar City and St. George, has been a reliably Republican voting district and is considered non-competitive going into the general election. Julia Johnson is a politics writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business, leading coverage of the U.S. Senate. She was previously a politics reporter at the Washington Examiner.
The district's Republican primary featured the involvement of several influential figures, including former President Trump, who endorsed Maloy earlier this month. Follow Julia's reporting on X at @JuliaaJohnson_ and send tips to Julia.Johnson@fox.com.
Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, weighed in on the race much earlier, endorsing Jenkins in April.
