I was discussing non-politics (ie: 2 player games as played locally)
games with a friend, and he mentioned something I wanted to check on. He
said that only Camarilla vampires can vote, unless the individual
vampire card text says otherwise.
I think I've also heard this mentioned elsewhere, but, I can't find it
in my copy of the rules (I have about 20 of the little V:TES booklets,
and it's not in any of them) under Vampire Politics in the basic rules,
or anywhere in the advanced rules.
Also, only titled vampires (Primogen/Prince/Justcar/IC Member) get votes
for free, based on their position. But, can any vampire with an
appropriate action modifer/reaction card (depending on if they're acting
or reacting) gain votes by playing it? Or, does the vampire using it
have to be titled. I would guess not, as Ventrue would become alot less
useful in the voting arena...but...I never seem to guess RIGHT on these
things anyway :).

Every vamp can vote until stated otherwise on the vote cards.

Yep.

Nope. He may also play those cards.

Not correct. Only Camarilla vampires can gain Camarilla titles (which
provide votes), but non-Camarilla vampires with votes can vote unless
explicitly excluded by card text (Closed Session, e.g.)

Your guess is correct.
