If woohoo won't do it, then what will?

Montrase102

My politician is having trouble securing votes. He has high charisma, but can't seem to secure a vote.
For example, the last targeted Sim he chatted, got to know, debated and promoted policies. It told me that the Sim was very receptive to my politician. He then befriended the Sim and actually romanced and did woohoo with the targeted Sim. When time came to secure the vote they refused.
I mean after all of that? What does it take if woohoo can't even seal the deal? lol

Maybe it was a poor woohoo. Lol.

@Montrase102 if that doesn't work, do what mortimer did

Show up in a towel. It worked
it was nice and subtle and to the point XD

LOL I will try that, thank you. My politician is quite a looker.

The comments in this thread made me chuckle. Only just started the politician career today so don't know too much about it. I noticed my sim was pretty successful securing votes when he was in a confident state. Don't know if that helps at all.

Hello
Being in a confident mood helps to secure votes. Try making sure that he is in that mood.

I've had the same problem recently. My sim got votes just fine the first few times(I don't remember her mood), but today I did everything and it told me the sims were receptive, but no votes. Even her husband wouldn't give his vote! I'll have to watch her mood next time.

I got the two first votes (I know this is late but I DONT CARE) and now I'm stuck on the 3rd. First vote was from her mom, second from her date... now she can't get any, having a kid who is a toddler... UGH! Thanks for info everyone tho it helped me! (maybe i mean i didnt try it yet.......)

@rosemow My sim was confident, promoted policies, debated successfully, and made empty promised successfully... he still said no? Please help, I clearly don't understand this career, and I have to complete it in the Not So Berry Challenge I'm doing!

Try going to another lot or testing by interacting with different sims and see if that helps. Some sims may have traits that are not receptive to what your sim is saying.

It also never hurts to ask the same Sim who accepted you once before!

Thanks both of you... sadly I lost my game after that and restarted... and I'm at the same point again haha! Same luck I guess... thanks, I'll try those

@paradiseplanet Thanks! I didn't know I could ask my sims' brother again... they have a great relationship and I know how he thinks after my first attempt. @rosemow Thanks, going to a different lot helped... for some reasons. Maybe because I wasn't inviting the sims over that way, and they were coming from their own free will... This career is tricky haha!
