Your job is to help me shape my message

[NEWSMAN] Tonight's the night,

and you can certainly feel the excitement out here.

Bette Porter's campaign has had quite a few bumps in the road,

but people have really responded to her commitment

to address the opioid crisis head-on.

Now, if Porter wins tonight,

she not only would be the first woman elected to this office,

but also the first openly gay mayor of the city.

It would truly be an historic day for Los Angeles.

The polls are about to close,

and members of our team will be here...

[DANI] Okay, everyone. Here we go.

Polls are closed.

Make sure you're all on the registrar's website.

We hit the doors in CD 11.

I know that we phoned our voters this past weekend,

but how many did we pull to vote?

I don't have any hard numbers,

- but we're doing all we can. - Well, I need numbers.

Go get me the numbers.

- [CHEERING] - [ALICE] And we're back with Roxane Gay.

I've always been obsessed with your idea of bad feminism.

You know, like, I really identify with that.

You know, I hear that from women a lot,

and I think it's because, for a lot of us,

we have this idea of what a feminist is

as angry and man-hating and hairy, which...

There's nothing wrong with any of that,

but, you know, there has to be space in feminism

for us to be human and flawed

but also to really care about the state of women in the world.

- Yeah. - [APPLAUSE]

- [WHOOPING] - [ROXANE] Thank you.

Can you be a bad queer?

Oh, absolutely.

Historically, in the queer community,

we've tried to resist heteronormative ideas.

- Mm-hmm. - And, so, these days,

to be a bad queer

is probably to want a wife and two kids

and a picket fence.

I think I might be a bad queer.

- Oh, really? How so? - Well,

I've been in a relationship with a really wonderful woman

- for about two years. - Mm-hmm.

And we were really happy,

and not too long ago, we introduced a third person

- into our couple. - [AUDIENCE MURMURING]

Like, a poly situation?

With her ex-wife.

Wow.

[CHUCKLES] That's certainly

an original way of getting into polyamory.

I wouldn't recommend it.

- You think? - [LAUGHTER]

[ALICE] But that is the queerest thing I could ever do,

- right? - Oh, absolutely.

On a scale of one to "what the fuck",

- that's way out there. - Right? Right.

'Cause I thought I was this cool,

open, you know, understanding queer lady

who wanted to live outside of every box, and...
