[LSJ] Echo of Harmonies / Burn card to call referendum again

Question for LSJ (couldn't find an answer on Google Groups): A vampire has a political action card on him or her placed their by a previous play of Echo of Harmonies at [MEL]. The vampire attempts to call the vote again but is blocked. Is the political action card burned anyway? Card text on Echo of Harmonies says "This vampire may burn that card to call the referendum...", not "to attempt to call the referendum", so I was under the impression that it didn't burn if the action was blocked, but I'm not sure so I'd like an official confirmation. Thanks in advance. -- charles lechasseur - da...@novideospamtron.ca

Confirmed. It is not burned to call the referendum if the action is blocked. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.
