Where are you getting that the Senate needs to approve the appointment? I didn't do an exhaustive search, but I'm not finding that requirement.

You are correct. NewsomтАЩs appointment can be seated without a vote. I deleted my comment. What I was reading (https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-04-30/feinstein-senate-shingles-retirement-resignation) was a section pertaining to committee assignments, which Republicans have already indicated that they would hamper. Apologies.
