She referred in a tweet to Gov. Gavin Newsoms district attorneys. DAs are elected in California, not appointed by the governor.

Now that Caitlyn Jenner is running for governor of California she might want to study up a bit on how things work in the state, suggested a New York public defender not too politely.
Jenner, who subscribes to the the Donald Trump strategy of having absolutely no political experience before heading for a top elected office, railed Saturday against California Gov. Gavin Newsoms district attorneys across California. She was upset about a case involving a dead child.
One relevant issue: California governors do not appoint district attorneys. Theyre chosen by voters. Its the kind of thing Californians would assume a candidate for governor of the state would know. In fact, Newsom endorsed the opponent of the district attorney Jenner criticized in her tweet.
Eliza Orlins, a candidate for district attorney across the country in Manhattan, instantly schooled Jenner about how it is.
