Was talking about the voting with a friend in the show and the way it works is that whoever is the murderer is put in the "#1" slot the next night, as the person who is #1 historically has never won because the audience is still a bit disoriented and confused by the process at that point. They do have a few different rules like that to try to ensure that the same ending isn't chosen every night, but obviously just reading this thread you can see some favorite endings and most common pairings have developed over time. It's unfortunate because some of the funniest endings in the script are ones that have rarely or never been chosen! Though I do love Helena and pretty much anyone as the lovers and thought she and Deputy made a particularly funny pairing.
Oh and for those talking about an extension, the cast is contracted through 3/10, so if there were an extension, that would be when it would extend until, beyond that contracts would need to be renegotiated.
