The AI is pretty stupid when it comes to voting.
Me and one other AI had plenty of votes to force our ideology as world ideology but they decided to dump nearly all their votes into Arts Funding (more than what was needed to make it statistically impossible to fail). So it passed by a gazillion Yeas to not a single Nay (as it almost always does every single game) and only put a handful of votes into World Ideology.
They should really split their votes more intelligently which includes the other issue of voting for hosts. When they have 3 votes and their friendliest ideological partner has 12 votes then they should just team up to ensure that the host isn't given to an ideological rival. I know the AI can vote for other people (I was voted in as host by another civ twice) but I've never seen the AI for for another AI.
Here's a screeny of me winning unexpectedly as China:
