I noticed that the text for Ventrue HQ has changed slightly;

"During a referendum, you may tap this card to gain 3 votes."

So presumably this could give you votes during a bloodhunt?

If so, what about other vote locations like the city gangrel
connections that by their old text still refer to the pol action? Can
these be presumed to refer to a referendum instead as well or are they
hosed?

Yes. This is not a functional change. Ventrue HQ has always been
able to supply votes in a bloodhunt.

The ones that restrict themselves to political actions cannot be used
during a bloodhunt referendum, since that is not a political action.

LSJ !
Just one more question : are the votes indivisibles ?
can i gain 3 votes from HQ and only put 1 in favor so the vote passes but
the meth whose minion called the vote cannot gain more than one pool from
Voter captivation ?

my guess is that you could put 2 votes for and 1 against. the effect you
were going for but using all 3 votes.

No. That is, they are indivisible (cannot be divided).

From the Camarilla Edition rulebook, [6.3.3] "Gaining Votes":

"Each vote cast is cast either "for" or "against" the referendum, and
a Methuselah may cast some of her votes in favor and some against, as
she chooses, with the restriction that ***all of the votes from each given
vampire or other source must be cast in agreement as a group.***"

(emphasis added.)

fyi, this is because reactions need an action to react on (just
thought i'd mention it :P)
