Caitlyn Jenner claims that she didn't bother voting in person during the 2020 Presidential Election.

According to CNN, Jenner, who is currently running against Gavin Newsom as governor of California, told news anchor Dana Bash in a recent interview that she skipped voting for Donald Trump in last year's elections to play golf instead.

Take a look at the CNN interview with Jenner in the video below:

Jenner said: "I didn't even vote. Out here in California, it's like, why vote for a Republican president? It's just not going to work. I mean, it's overwhelming."

The 71-year-old former Olympic athlete, who famously voted for Trump in 2016, continued: "It was voting day and I thought the only thing out here in California that I worry about, which affects people, is the propositions that were out there.

"I didn't see any propositions that I really had one side or the other. And so it was Election Day and I just couldn't get excited about it. And I just wound up going to play golf and I said, 'I'm not doing that.'"

CNN reports confirm that Jenner only voted by mail on the ballot propositions, but she did not vote in the presidential race or other down-ballot races, according to her campaign official.

In the above interview, Jenner also expressed support for the reinstatement of the death penalty in the state, after Newsom imposed an official moratorium on executions in 2019.

Jenner first announced that she was running for the post of governor on April 23, sharing in a statement to her 3.5 million followers on Twitter: "I'm in! California is worth fighting for."

However, Jenner recently provoked controversy after claiming that her friends are leaving California over the sight of homeless people and sparked backlash for her opposition to trans women competing in female sports.

Speaking to Fox News, Jenner said: "My friends are leaving California. My hangar, the guy right across, was packing up his hangar and I said: 'where are you going?'

"He says: 'I'm moving to Sedona, Arizona, I can't take it here anymore. I can't walk down the streets and see the homeless'. I don’t want to leave, okay? Either I stay and fight, or I get out of here."

Per New York Times, Jenner rescinded support for the Trump Administration in 2018 - citing her rejection of a number of key Trump policies, such as his recently-reversed ban on transgender people serving in the military.
