<p>California Governor Gavin Newsom will reportedly appoint Laphonza Butler, the president of far-left EMILY&#8217;s List, to replace Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) in the U.S. Senate after Feinstein passed away last week.</p>
<p>Politico broke the <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2023/10/01/newsom-senate-pick-butler-00119360">news</a> on Sunday evening, which comes after Feinstein <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sen-dianne-feinstein-dies-at-90">died</a> Thursday night at 90 years old, noting that the appointment comes &#8220;without putting limitations or preconditions on his pick running for the seat in 2024.&#8221; This means that Butler can join the existing field of contenders for the party&#8217;s nominee in 2024.</p>
<p>The current contenders for the 2024 include Democrat Reps. Katie Porter, Adam Schiff and Barbara Lee.</p>
<p>Various reports published on Sunday, before Newsom&#8217;s selection was revealed, indicated that Feinstein&#8217;s replacement was expected to be sworn in this week.</p>
<p>&#8220;This means that California will not only get a Black woman Senator but also its first openly lesbian Senator,&#8221; noted journalist Yashar Ali. &#8220;Laphonza will be the second lesbian to serve in the Senate.&#8221;</p>
<p>Journalists online noted that Butler listed her state of residence on her X account as Maryland.</p>
<p>&#8220;FEC filings from EMILY&#8217;s List record Laphonza Butler&#8217;s residence as Silver Springs, Maryland as recently as 31 days ago,&#8221; said FEC analyst Rob Pyers. &#8220;FPPC and FEC filings indicate that soon-to-be California Senator Laphonza Butler hasn&#8217;t been a resident of the state for over two years.&#8221;</p>

<p>Pyers noted that EMILY&#8217;s List was already cleaning up their website to hide where Butler allegedly lives. The organization <a href="https://twitter.com/rpyers/status/1708689675341451297">removed</a> the following line from their website: &#8220;She lives in Maryland with her partner Neneki Lee and their daughter Nylah.&#8221;</p>
<p>EMILY&#8217;s List is a political action committee that helps elect pro-abortion activists to political offices across the country.</p>
