Republican Celeste Maloy has won a special election in Utah to replace her former boss, U.S. Rep. Chris Stewart. Maloy’s win puts a woman in Utah’s congressional delegation for the first time since 2019. Maloy was chief legal counsel for Stewart, who resigned in September after 10 years in Congress because his wife is ill. Maloy beat state Sen. Kathleen Riebe, who as minority whip is the Utah Senate’s second-ranking Democrat. Maloy rode a wave of rural support and Stewart’s endorsement to win a three-way Republican special primary in September.
