You forgot the third possible scenario. The first scenario could happen and the show could still be canceled.
I would have wrote the above had I seen it earlier. In either case the show is canceled. But the above is still possible because show runners want to leave the possibility of renewal on the table.
You’re right about the forced romance. I didn’t see that coming at all. We saw them in those meetings for Alex like one time.
@jbaby_9783 you are right, that is another possibility. I was looking at it under the assumption that a) there is a 3rd season and b) they don't cancel with only one episode left. Then a 3rd season could focus around the campaign and the end could have gone either way. To be honest, although I like the show, I never saw it going much longer that one more season anyway.
@FinFan I completely agree. I kind of always thought it’d get canceled and there’d be no season three. The ratings for season two were worse than season one and season one ratings weren’t great to begin with. And frankly this plot always had an expiration date. It was nice while it lasted though.

Is there really a difference if Hannah wears a badge or not? She breaks in with a loaded weapon, commits bodily harm, and she simply calls Aaron and comes free. Also Kendra and Trey, where does this come from? No chemistry, if you ask me. It seems it's only there to add a romance. Finally, the mysterious candidate - what a surprise. As if that was a big secret.
But it's good that the campaign is likely to start in the next season. I only see two possible scenarios. Kirkman is re-elected and we get Season 4 or he loses and the show ends after Season 3.
Despite what I wrote above, I will come back next week.

Doesn't matter any more, I just read ABC has canceled so next week will be the last episode.
