With the first teaser for season 4 of House of Cards strategically placed during the GOP debates it seems like the Netflix series will be taking some inspiration from the real life elections.

Is This Going To Be The Last Chapter Of The Netflix Drama?

As Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) will also be campaigning for reelection, it only makes sense to somehow align the storyline with the real life action going on with the elections.

As Frank fights for his second term as president, there will be a real life parallel election with Hillary Clinton as a forerunner. There are many overlaps which are hard to ignore. Not only that Frank will be fighting for an election but there is a woman who will be challenging him. Claire Underwood (Robin Wright) might also play impediment in his win.

Previously, a Venture Capital report speculated that the show might draw from aspects of the real elections.

Spacey, who is a good friend of the Clintons, has often brought up former president Bill Clinton when talking about the show, and even did a House of Cards parody, which featured Hillary, to wish Bill happy birthday last year.

In an interview with Gotham magazine, Spacey stated that Bill Clinton had told him that most of what goes on in the show is accurate.

Spacey told the publication that Bill Clinton had told him that loved House of Cards.

The actor, who is famous for his impressions, put on his Clinton voice and told the publication about Clinton's approval of the Netflix drama: "Kevin, 99 percent of what you do on that show is real. The 1 percent you get wrong is you could never get an education bill passed that fast."

Season 4 will air on March 4 on Neftlix.
