A Letter from June and Kate

Dear Reader On election night November 8 2016 I June Diane Raphael - photo 3

Dear Reader,

On election night, November 8, 2016, I (June Diane Raphael, actress-writer-podcasterhyphenate haver) boarded a red-eye from LA to NY to go to a funeral, which would turn out to be one of the brighter spots of the next few days. The two other seats in my row were empty. A news notification popped up on my phone as I settled into my seat. The state of Florida was called for Trump. Alone in my row, I was feelinghow to put thisshaky.

At takeoff I still thought there was a way for this to turn around. There just had to be. But when we reached our cruising altitude, CNN correspondent John King was on the television explaining there was no path for Hillary. I stared at him. I wondered what happened with him and Dana Bash and why they didnt go the distance. And then I wondered if this was real life and if Hillary had actually lost or if the plane had crashed and I was a ghost? Being a ghost didnt seem all that

A man scooted up from his full row behind me and sat in the aisle seat of my row. He had seen an open seat and, well... he was gonna take it. He started taking out his computer and setting himself up.

Nope. Nah. No fucking way, dude.

Sir, Im so sorry. I actually bought all of the seats in this row. Thats mine. That seat is mine.

Because we are just meeting, Dear Reader, please know that Im not usually in the business of lying to strangers. But when this very sweet man looked up at me, I saw something in his eyes. A hint of recognition? Maybe he knew me from TV? The Netflix series Grace and Frankie? From my podcast How Did This Get Made? From a guest-star role I did on the failed NBC sitcom Animal Practice , in which I played opposite a monkey? I tried to make my face somehow look more recognizablea strange endeavor. But somehow, some way, this man nodded, saying, Of course, and started to pack up his things.

Of course!

Of course, I had purchased AN ENTIRE ROW, like any other actress of mild fame would! The truth was I simply could not bear to be with anyone as election night unfolded. I needed those seats. Not for my body; I needed them for my damn mind.

I wont take you through the rest of the flight. Ill only mention that when the 270 electoral votes came in, a very intoxicated man in first class jumped up screaming with joy and then started gyrating against his seat. Quick, purposeful thrusts were accompanied by lots of OH YEAHs. Hillary had lost. Donald Trump had won. And I was watching a man hump a seat.

My eyes popped open the next morning. I sat up from the empty row I had not purchased, defensively pulled my coat over my Hillary T-shirt, and peered down the aisle to see where the chair rapist was. To make matters so much worse, he was cozied up in a blanket snug as a bug in a rug, sleeping peacefully in the very seat hed had his way with just hours before. And I thought...

Should I run for office?

B ut seriously, I thought to myself, should I? If Trump is qualified to be our president, am I not just as qualified? Maybe even more so? I stared at my row. Were there more seats to claim as my own? Without explanation or apology?

But where would I begin? What would I run for? What about my past? Ive for sure texted topless pics to various gentlemen callers in my day. Does that disqualify me altogether? What would I do about my career? My children? I already feel like I dont spend enough time with them. How much money would I need to raise? And... what about those pics again?

I had no idea how to answer these questions. I searched for a current, comprehensive guide and came up empty-handed. But it turns out there was a woman who could answer all of my questions. Heres how I found her.

Remembering that my friend Morgan mentioned shed gone to a fundraiser for EMILYs List (an organization dedicated to getting pro-choice Democratic women into office), I sent her the following text:

Ignore the last part of that text exchange, thanks.
