California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced that he will not appoint any of the contenders in the upcoming Senate race to replace Senator Dianne Feinstein, instead opting to make an "interim appointment" until the primary election on March 5. This decision has been met with mixed reactions, with some praising Newsom for his commitment to fairness and democracy, while others argue that he should have the right to appoint a candidate of his choosing. The primary election on March 5 will be a crucial moment in deciding who will fill the seat, should Feinstein resign before then.
