In its groundbreaking first season, The North Pole introduced us to Oaklands favorite trash-talking, revolutionary polar bears: Nina, Benny, Marcus, and newcomer Finn.

Now in the aftermath of the police confrontation that rocked North Oakland in the Season 1 finale, Benny is locked up and and threatened with deportation. When Nina convinces him that the best defense is a good offense, Benny decides to runs for office against the shady local Sheriff who is trying to deport him. In the process, he becomes the first undocumented immigrant to run for public office in America only the first of many ways that his DIY, brilliantly hilarious campaign is unique.

Meanwhile, wildfires rage around Northern California, and Nina, Marcus, and Finn face their own struggles with major health crises, racist family members, and ridiculously escalating Twitter wars. As Bennys unorthodox campaign gains mass attention and spirals out of control, the four friends must somehow unite the neighborhood to defend Benny and the place they all call home.
