Newbie Question About Voting Rules

[KNAL...@kentvm.kent.edu]

Sorry if this seems like a stupid question but there are a few voting rules
that I'm not too clear on. I have the owner's manual that comes with the
initial deck and I was confused by the wording on pg.39. The manual states
that a political card "...always provides one vote for the Methuselah
playing it." My question is: is that vote added to the vote a player has as a
Methuselah or does it simply mean that the player initiating the vote can
simply vote with the rest? That is, does the Methuselah playing the political
card and starting the political voting process get a total of one vote or
votes? Sorry about this seemingly stupid question but a veteran player told me
I only get one vote and this was not my understanding of the rules. Also, I
know that in a bloodhunt a player can play no action cards but can he/she play
a political card?

Methuselahs do not get votes for being Methuselahs, they must play/use cards
or titled vampires.

Bloodhunt votes restrict only Action Mod/Reaction cards. Al other means of
gaining votes are fine.
