Python Requests Cookies not stored

I am trying to login to a page using Python requests (2.10.0).

Code:

payload = {
    'user_login': '[email protected]',
    'user_pass': 'xxx',
    'rememberme': '1'
}
with requests.session() as sess:
    resp = sess.post(URL_LOGIN, data=payload)
    print resp.cookies

This should have returned multiple cookies. When I see in Chrome developer tools, I see the following:

Cookies Post Login enter image description here

However, when I print it on console, I see only the last cookie. Rest all are lost. The same login password works in browser. Due to this, subsequent request from same session fails.

RequestsCookieJar [Cookie wordpress_test_cookie=WP+Cookie+check for some.domain].

Why are the other cookies not preserved in session. All other subsequent requests doesn't recognize the login and I suspect its because of the missing cookies.

Could anyone help please?

Thanks @Padraic - I was using the 'id' attribute but 'name' was to be used. Thanks for that. wp-submit was not required. Thanks again.
