Steem Bug - Multiple Votes From Single User on One Post
I was making the voting rounds just now when I ran into a strange issue.  I've noticed since HF 19 that sometimes posts would disappear and reappear after refreshing **Home** a few minutes apart.  Perhaps more worrisome, though, I've also noticed that posts I was sure I've upvoted have lost my little blue up arrow ![bluey.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmUcHEyVHHqNixyZAFLZbSdXE7WzoBF3HuUY1YtHwKD8k2/bluey.png)!!

I thought maybe I was just going crazy.  Or maybe my upvote never connected to the server.  This is reasonable, since the website and blockchain are getting slammed with activity after HF 19.

## Finally I have incontrovertible proof of a bug!

Over the past half hour, I came across a post I thought was a good one:

![kingscrown_post.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmXrwjbsB1n7gX9ChxChKm5oHCAdH2zncfDviukhxw2Ubz/kingscrown_post.png)

So naturally, I upvoted it:

![tx_1.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaJUxqSyTN815qNKgbEwb6F2rXivpbpphSztvtUoBAggs/tx_1.png)

Not more than half an hour later, I was browsing new posts again, and lo-and-behold the post I remember liking so much showed no signs of being upvoted by me.  My natural reaction was to rectify the situation by upvoting it correctly this time:

![tx_2.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcV54uLQbhwqgRUXhMqjf51PSHhnfjMp3bGP8MijTDV1T/tx_2.png)

Finally, I refreshed the page again and was satisfied the white up arrow had turned blue.

## Nevertheless, something didn't sit right with me.  I was _sure_ I'd upvoted it properly on my first attempt.

Rather than go through the trouble of manually parsing the blockchain, I used steemd.com for convenience to lay out my recent vote history.  What did I find?  No other than the proof shown above, that two separate transactions contain my votes for the post listed above.  Here is the transaction history laid out reverse-chronologically:

![voting_history.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQQofSA2hrUjXdv62A3Rm5jXkVczqUFNj6aNCuongr2vy/voting_history.png)

So there you have it; a post I was able to upvote twice!  And with differing weights no less!

What could have happened here?  Is steemd.com perhaps wrong?  Was my first vote invalidated?

I'm hoping a dev or someone with more knowledge of the Steem inner-workings is able to answer these questions.

Hello @geoffrey, I feel you. Happened some time where I voted, refreshed page, vote gone, voted again, refreshed page, vote gone. Usually at the 3rd time it appears.

Another problem I encounter is with the comments. I write them, press post and they don't appear on the page and it is not saved in drafts. Since then I copy paste the text from a word file and doublecheck it if it has been posted.

That is weird, never encountered that before, or.. did not notice. In the essence is just against everything that blockhain represents. Did it also give the rewards form the reward pool to the author after up voting multiple times?  Bu since the block size is 3 seconds... it might theoretically happen that both upvotes were included in different blocks as separate transactions. That should be a front end issue then.

A witness only include a transaction if he have consensus with other nodes who also have copy of the blockchain.

Double vote is like double spending. Not possible on any blockchain unless compromising the nodes.

That's the author's reputation.  Upvotes bring it up, and downvotes bring it down.  It's on a log scale.  [Here's more info on it](https://www.steem.center/index.php?title=Reputation_System).

I guess quite a lot of people have this problem.I have encountered this problem when using my smartphone (using chrome as browser) and ipad(safari). Quite shocked that esteem has this problem also. We need to be careful that not to cancel our vote and waste the precious voting power by mistake. I hope this problem would me fixed soon.

That is alarming. Glad you notice. I hope the fix the bugs soon! It was strange, because yesterday I made a post... I swear I pressed post... I saw it briefly and then the whole post disappeared all together. I ended up just redoing the post and submitting it... but I thought that was strange.

I think that is right. I've seen this happened. currently once I vote for one thing and my larva passes once Maine, the second vote gets in to cancel my 1st vote. It did not use to be the case. The larva accustomed skip a post I already had voted on.

I'm undecided however it happened for you that you simply were ready to cancel your alternative vote while not truly cancelling it however that appears to be what happened.

Hi,

When you double vote on a post, your second vote cancels your first one.

Both votes are registered on the blockchain but only the last one is valid. Your curation rewards are 0℅ and your vote worth $0 for the author.

Here, look:

Yes, VP is spent for this transaction, and your VP also decreases when you reverse your vote (upvote to downvote or back) but no extra VP spent for cancelling.

Yep, @neander-squirrel is absolutely correct. There was definitely a display issue as to not show the previous vote on Steemit.com, and the second vote overwrote the first. 

Interestingly, if the vote power was identical, the second transaction would fail :)

Normally steemit.com says "You already voted in a similar way" when I try to upvote a post that the website "forgot" about.  This is the only time I caught it let me actually upvote a post that my browser isn't aware I already upvoted.

That's why I think it's a user interface issue with steemit.com. I have voted twice on the same post before by mistake but using other interfaces other than steemit.com
