When does Lutz ability trigger? was created by Hobbesgoblin

Lutz has been originally ruled that if Lutz' was removed by the reult of a passing referendum, that his special would strill trigger.
LSJ 20090115-2

This seems to be not the case anymore with the rewording.

Since this has been (mis)interpreted in different ways all the time, I ask for a quotable clarification that Lutz' special does NOT trigger anymore, if he is removed by the effects of a referendum, be it that it was reversed, or that the ruling is moot by new cardtext.

With the updated cardtext, the check and the effect are both performed after the referendum passes, that is after resolution.
If Lutz is no longer ready at that point (because his controller got ousted by the referendum for instance), then it does not trigger.
The ruling provided is moot due to the new cardtext.
