Caitlyn Jenner's California gubernatorial campaign didn't exactly "work out," but might she run for office again?

The former athlete and reality TV star co-hosted The View on Tuesday after coming up short in her recall bid against California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), drawing about one percent of the vote. Asked if she'd seek office again, Jenner confirmed she would, adding, "I want to stay involved." She also said that even though the campaign didn't "work out the way we wanted," it "opened my eyes to political life," and she intends to continue fighting to make the Republican Party "more inclusive."
