I would like to do two things:
Vote a survival map on VS mode.
Vote tutorial_standards on VS mode.
How can I vote this?
(Do not tell me to start my own server, I want to know how to do this on any old server I happen to join)

That only lets you vote for mode specific maps.
And could you please read the title of the thread?

You cannot vote for maps that are not made for the mode you are currently playing, nor vote for tutorial_standards using the "Call Vote" button at any time.
Could somebody please tell me the console command to start a vote to change to a specified map?

I just tried to call a vote for a map, watch the screenshotlinks below
You can only vote for specific maps on Survival, not on versus or campaign

If it is not your server, you cannot do rcon commands unless you know the rcon password. So you cannot do any kind of activity that the game doesnt flat allow you to do (aka, the esc menu) without owning it.

you can call a vote even if it's not your own server...

Not the way he wants to tho. Thats why I said, you cant call a vote that the game does not already let you implement via the esc menu.
Basically meaning, if it is not your server, the only vote method you have is the escape menu.

before the dlc, the commands to change map was in console, you type the following commands:
callvote changemission smalltown/airport (death toll/dead air) perspectively.
but now that the dlc came out and theres versus versions of the other two maps, I'm actually not quite sure if you can change modes and maps on the fly anymore. Dunno if that was much help
Now for survival map, thats another doozey, which I have no idea, I would check online and see if theres a updated console command list or something like that. Sorry I mis read the OP.

I dunno if you can do this without rcon ability (aka, not your server) but the new command they added in mp_gamemode allows you to change modes on the fly.
