Someone is vote-rigging. I voted this up and it is currently at 0. Presumably the intention is that you vote up the answer you believe is correct and do not vote down the answer you believe is wrong otherwise this poll will stay at zero for both answers.
I saw it go up and then back down and hoped it was just someone miss-clicking. Shameful. Luckily, the person is also stupid: if you wait for there to be a lot of votes no one will notice. Everyone should consider this answer to have one more vote than it does.
Could be. I figured not meaning to vote was more likely than a mind-change in the span of like 10 ten seconds on a math problem we’ve been talking about for days.
The same thing happened to me the first time I voted this up and this down—neither vote seemed to register. I attributed it to lag or a software error eliminating my votes. Reloading the page and revoting has made my votes stick, so it may work for you as well.
Question #1: One-third

The karma going up, and then back down could—in theory—represent a withdrawn vote, or someone changing their mind.

Sure. What I meant was that there are other explanations—and so not necessarily any need for blame.

That doesn’t appear to be the problem for me—the Vote Up link is bolded and if I click it to remove the upvote the score changes to −1.
You’re right; that’s distinct from what happened to me. Neither of my voting links were bold after I voted the first time and refreshed.
