In October 2024, Lee was seen volunteering in West Coast GRC.

In late March 2025, Lee was seen with four of the incumbent MPs for the five-member Pasir Ris–Punggol GRC, which had been abolished for the general election in the same year at the recommendation of the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee (EBRC).[6] On Nomination Day, 23 April, she was nominated to be part of the PAP team for the four-member Pasir Ris–Changi GRC, created from the abolition of Pasir Ris–Punggol GRC.[7]
