#dede standish

Dede Standish: Dede doesn’t get jealous much. She trusts you to shut down any flirting you don’t want on your own, or be honest with her if you actually decided to flirt back. As long as you follow that rule, she’s totally okay with it and feels there’s nothing to be jealous about.

Dusty Jackson: Dusty won’t let anyone near enough to you to get so much as a chance to flirt, so take that as her not being jealous at all, or extremely jealous. That’s up to you to interpret. Part of what you fell in love with was her protectiveness of you.

Georgina Hobart: While easily bored of people, Georgina actually gets surprisingly jealous when someone tries to hit on you. Near crazy levels of jealousy. She doesn’t love that about herself, but she’s reassured when you tell her that you like when she defends you and calls you hers.

Hadassah Gold: Hadassah gets super insecure when she’s jealous and worries that you won’t love her enough not to leave her. You really have to be clear and direct that you’re already taken, especially when Hadassah is around, because you know it makes her smile when you choose her over anyone else.

Georgina:

But I think The Politician really delivers in its The Voter(s) episodes. While the rest of the series is so out-of-this-world, these episodes seem to be taken seriously.

Over the rest of the series, in the perspective of the politicians, it's all just so wild, crazy, and unbelievable. But in these specific episodes, we see things from the outside — in the perspective of the voters — we actually see something realistic out of this hot mess that the politicians have created.

Last season, The Voter was dedicated to the perspective of the out-of-touch citizen. He hears, but never really listens. He believes his vote won't matter because everyone else is in their own world anyway, especially the politicians. But there is clearly a point in the day where he almost feels someone can care enough to make a difference, and he can say something and be heard. Deep in the next episode, election results are revealed to be closely matched so the viewer feels his indifference mattered.

This season, The Voters addressed the generational differences in voters and how we need to be critical to get past the ambiguities of each side in order to obtain something objective. Each side struggled with the authenticity and motivations of the candidates they believed in. Immediately in the next episode, election results are once again *cough cough* closely matched, so the viewer feels that the voters' decisions really made a difference.
