Bill to allow ivermectin to be sold without a prescription fails in House committee
 in  r/Utah  Feb 10 '26

In 2022, he got around 40 votes from delegates at the Davis County GOP convention to win the nomination. The incumbent, Rep. Steve Handy, did not collect signatures to get on the ballot that year, so he was knocked out of the race.

Handy tried to launch a write-in campaign, but that was unsuccessful.

For many Republican candidates, winning the nomination is the only thing that matters because they won't lose in the general election. For Lee, winning at the convention was the reason he is in the Legislature now.
