Overall, 47% of Utah voters say they approve of Lee's performance, while 44% say they disapprove and 10% say they don't know, according to the latest Deseret News/Hinckley Institute of Politics poll.
Among Utah voters who consider themselves conservative or very conservative, Lee gets high marks, with 80% of very conservative voters saying they approve of his job performance and 68% of conservative voters saying the same. But, on the flip side, Democrats in Utah are almost totally united in their disapproval, with 92% saying they either somewhat or strongly disapprove of Lee's performance in office.
A few months into his third term, Lee is known as one of the more conservative lawmakers in the upper chamber. On its scorecard, Heritage Action for America, a conservative advocacy group, gives Lee a lifetime rating of 96% when assessing "how conservative members of Congress are." And according to the polling website FiveThirtyEight, Lee votes with President Joe Biden only 18% of the time, one of the lowest percentages even among Republicans.
