Say that meth A, play a Kine Res. Con. and allocates 3 points to meth
B. who has 2 pool, meth B. plays poison pill. So, if the referendum
passes and suppose that meth A has also 2 pool, then are they ousted
at the same time ?
or does KRC trigers first and causes the oust of meth B before poison
pill works.
I would say that they are ousted at the same time, so what happens
at that case ? do they get 1 and 1/2 victory point each (in addition
to any other vp earned previously) ?

IANLSJ, but I believe that the Poison Pill effect triggers when the vote
passes -- that is, they're simultaneous, so both get ousted.

In the case where Meths are ousted simultaneously, ousted Meths receive
any VPs they are entitled to, but no pool. So Meth A gets the VP for
Meth B, but no pool. If it was only A+B, B would get the VP for Meth A,
as well.

Correct.

Correct, per section 9 of the rules.
