If I choose not to Respec and I end up with negative skillpoints, can I still train my politician skills since they take 0 skillpoints?
I have worked hard building my city ... please answer this ...

You should be able to, yes. But...
I believe you will have to resolve negative skillpoints. You will have to drop some things.

You dont honestly believe that they will let you go without fixing your SP being in the hole do you? Eventually, they will do something to ensure that noone has a case of negative SP. I would hate to see how...likely just remove random skills automatically. Like all 3 master boxes. This is SOE we are talking about.

I don't understand. Politician skills cost no skill points, they are therefore worth no skill points, and could not be traded in to relieve negative skill points.
To answer your first question, =totally= out of context... will you still be able to advance in politician with negative skill points. Yes. Earning a box that is worth zero would not be taken away from you to cover negative points because zero would do nothing to thew negative points.
Back in context... will you be able to do =anything= if you have negative skill points? I doubt you'll even be allowed to =walk= before you resolve that.

They have said that if you end up with negative skill points, you will not be able to move until you resolve the negative. So unless you plan on just standing in one spot, you'll have to drop something to pick up the slack.
Politician skills won't help or hurt you as far as the respec goes since they are 0 skill points. The only way I would imagine you could advance in Politician if you end up with 0 skill points, though, is if you load within conversing distance with a Politician trainer.

I verified this last night. It displays a system message that you are unable to move until your -xx skill points are resolved, where xx is the number of skill points you're negative by.
