One of my fellow players was asking me if you use delaying tactics on a blood hunt referendum since nothing was said of a political action referendum.


Have you or your fellow player looked at the section in the rulebook about the Blood Hunt?

vekn.net/rulebook
6.5.6. The Blood Hunt

As stated, vampiric society condemns the act of diablerie. The penalty for committing this act is death, and the method of justice is a blood hunt (called a "wild hunt" by some groups of vampires; the terms are interchangeable), in which the diablerist is hunted down and destroyed by others of his kind. In practice, however, this brand of justice is not always meted out fairly, depending on the connections that the diablerist has.

When a vampire commits diablerie, a referendum is automatically conducted to determine if a blood hunt will be called on the diablerist. If the referendum passes, a blood hunt is called, and the diablerist is burned. This referendum is not an action, so it cannot be blocked, and action modifiers and reaction cards cannot be played . Otherwise, this referendum is handled just like any other.

Does above still count if the blood hunt is called by a special action, such as Bernard, the scourge's special ability, which states that he calls a blood hunt as a +1 stealth political action?

No, since no vampire commited diablerie.

There is a difference between the blood hunt induced by a diablerie, and a blood hunt referendum called by Bernard (just as there is a difference the "normal" hunt action, and a hunt action like Abactor).
