Only "during referendum" cards are not replaced. Other "during political
action" cards are replaced as normal (the card used to take the action,
action modifiers played before the referendum, etc.)
The political action card (if any) is played before the referendum, so is
replaced as normal.

Rulebook: "No Methuselahs draw to replace cards during a referendum." [6.3.2]
Barrens card text: "Tap to discard a card from your hand."
If you tap it during a referendum, then the card you discard is not replaced
until after the referendum. If you tap it at some other time during a
political action, then the discarded card is replaced as normal.

If A is younger, yes.

A is still the acting vampire.

Yes. [LSJ 07-OCT-1997]

The blocking minion's attempt to block will fail if he becomes tapped before
he successfully blocks (and doesn't untap or wake). [RTR 06-OCT-1994]
