Incumbent Republican Blake Moore holds a commanding position in Utah’s 2nd Congressional District race due to the district’s strong Republican lean, which encompasses northern counties that delivered large margins for Donald Trump in 2024. Moore secured the GOP nomination in June by defeating state Rep. Karianne Lisonbee and benefits from high-profile endorsements, substantial fundraising, and his prior congressional leadership role. Independent ratings classify the seat as safe or solid Republican. Democratic challenger Peter Crosby’s internal polls have shown narrowing gaps or slight leads in September, yet these remain unverified by nonpartisan sources and have not altered broader assessments. A late scandal, health event, or unusually high Democratic turnout could still shift outcomes before the November 3 general election.
