Oops forgot about the Daimyo and the Jonin vote. Sorry. But still, it seems that with Hashi implants Danzo can use Kotoamatsukami at least twice a day. So he could have used it on Hiruzen and the Elders first, then make them recommend Danzo to the Daimyo, then use it on the Daimyo (since it would take some time between the Elders' recommendation and the Daimyo meeting, which would give ample time for Shisui's eye to recharge). Then the most difficult part: using it on the Jonins. It's difficult, but not impossible. I think someone with Danzo's ambition (who went as far as allying himself with Hanzo so he could be Hokage) would definitely have gambled with the Kotoamatsukami. It's a low-risk venture, as long as the Hyuuga don't get suspicious and use the byakugan to find out his secrets.
