Rep. Celeste Maloy (R-Utah) and challenger Colby Jenkins appear headed for a recount in their too-close-to-call June 25 Utah Republican congressional primary election.

The first-term incumbent, endorsed by former President Donald Trump, was clinging to a 214-vote lead with 107,282 ballots counted in the state’s Second Congressional District (CD2) contest, according to the latest updated results posted by Utah’s Lieutenant Governor’s Office at 9:15 p.m. local time on July 9.
