Previously, the interface responded immediately, but the vote wasn’t immediately applied (if you reopened the same post/comment, you wouldn’t see your vote for a while). Sometimes, a vote would be lost, never applied, even though it was reflected in the interface. It looks like now the interface waits for the vote to actually get received, and only updates once it has been. As before, it takes a while for that to happen, and sometimes it doesn’t happen at all, but the difference is that now this effect is apparent.
If this delay can’t be easily fixed, an animation indicating that the operation is in progress (like one appearing when sending a comment) might help with the interface responsiveness issue.

I suppose that that’s actually better, but

is definitely better again. Otherwise I’m tempted to mash the voting button until something happens. It doesn’t have to be an “animation” it could just be a still image of something that means “waiting” like a clock or a sandtimer.
