In 2017, The Hill reported Jenner showed interested in a political bid and had ‘considered’ running for California Senate. ‘I like the political side of it,’ she said.

She also helped organize the rally he addressed immediately before the U.S. Capitol assault on Jan. 6.
Caitlyn’s potential run also coincides with momentum from the Gavin Newsom recall efforts as opponents criticize his handling of the pandemic.
Jenner, who transitioned at the age of 65, was previously married to Kris Jenner from 1991-2015 and Linda Thompson from 1981-1986.
Progress: Jenner said in a PEOPLE interview in 2020 that she’s changed her thinking in a lot of ways and no longer solely identifies as a Republican, but is more ‘economically conservative, socially progressive’ (seen at the Women’s March in January 2020)
