A while ago I one bombed my story by mistake, so then it dawned on me to one bomb it twice to see if the sweep removed the ones. Two months later it hasn't happened.

How did you vote twice?
I've always been told you could only vote once for any story.

I doubt anyone knows for sure what happens.

How are duplicate/multiple votes identified anyway?
By ip address? Well, that wouldn't be right. . . suppose it was two different people using the same computer.
email address?
Can't a writer vote for their own story?

If you vote while logged in to your account, then you log out, you won't see that vote there.
I think that's happened to me before, where I looked back on a story I read and noticed then I hadn't voted, so I voted again, then I remembered that wasn't logged in when I originally voted days prior.

The Web site won't say how their formulas work. If they did, more folks would be circumventing them than are doing so now.
And, yes, it would appear that two people in the same household going through the same ISP cannot not each have a vote hold.
The contest voting system is too full of holes to worry all that much about fair, I'm afraid.
On voting for yourself. Laurel has declared that an author can vote for her/his own story. When I experimented with it, the vote appeared to be swept. So, I guess the statement that an author can vote for her/his own story might be true--but that the statement that it won't hold, that it will be swept, quite possibly also is true.
