Caitlyn Jenner announced this Friday by way of press release, she will engage in politics.

The ex-athlete is running for governor of California.

He would then be the first transgender person to hold this position in the United States.

The former figure of the decathlon, medalist at the Montreal Olympics, intends to officially launch his campaign in the coming weeks.

"A compassionate agitator"

"I am a real winner and the only

outsider

who can end Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom's disastrous tenure," added Caitlyn Jenner. I have been a compassionate agitator throughout my life, from representing the United States and winning an Olympic gold medal to helping advance the equality movement. "

The transgender activist has been living in California for almost 50 years: "I came here because I knew that everyone, no matter their history or social situation, could make their dreams come true."

The mother of Kylie and Kendall Jenner, and ex-mother-in-law of the Kardashian sisters denounces "small businesses devastated" by the closure of the economy to fight against the coronavirus, "an entire generation of children" deprived of school for a year, and "excessively high taxes, which destroy jobs, hurt families and place a particularly heavy burden on the most vulnerable".

End Gavin Newsom's tenure

The state of the American West could soon hold a referendum on the dismissal of its once very popular governor, whose star has faded with his decision to impose strict health restrictions to stem the pandemic.

The authorities must confirm by the end of April that the number of signatures required (around 1.5 million) to organize this "recall ballot" has indeed been reached.

If so, a referendum will need to be held to ask California voters whether they want to replace Gavin Newsom, in power since 2019, and if so, by whom.
