Cannot Convince a Sim to Vote on NAP in non Evergreen Harbor lot

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.70.84.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except Paranormal.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go to a community lot in Windenburg with a family living in Windenburg with a Community Voting Board (downloaded the room from Crin since that’s bugged too). During a voting period, the interaction to Vote on NAP will not appear under Friendly.
What happens when the bug occurs? Cannot convince to vote on NAP during voting period with community board on lot.
What do you expect to see? The interaction to convince to vote on NAP during voting period.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

‌

Does it have to do with the community boards being bugged? I’d prefer to not have to cheat to do what would otherwise be a really easy Aspiration.

    So I tested your save and I think the problem is that the board isn't in the same neighborhood as your Sim lives in. Willow Creek and Windenburg the board is in an all community lot area so there's no one you can actually convince there.

    It worked for me to place the board in Windenburg in the park on the island and then move in some Sims into the neighborhood.

    Going to the lot with the board it then showed up on the Sims. Not sure if moving in Sims is a requirement but I think the boards needs to be in the hood you live in for the options to show up on the Sims.

    I don't really see the option on the community board itself though. But I couldn't get it to show in Evergreen Harbor either. So not sure what's going on there.

    There's older threads on this though so it doesn't seem to be related to the board from the gallery.

    @crinrict showing on the board isn’t a thing. I misspoke on that. It wasn’t showing up on the Sims. But okay, it’s not just town/city then, it has to be the exact neighborhood? I didn’t run into that issue with my San Mushyno family before (they live in the fashion district and the board is in the Arts Quarter), but I can work with that logic now.

    @thinmint1291 I think so, yes. As the NAPs only apply to one neighborhood, you need to have the board in the one you can vote in.
