WHY did MY 'vote' not COUNT?

I 'voted' on a question (THIRD time this has happened), and clicked the BACK button, which shows me the 'results'... What 'I' voted for got a ZERO... and I can't REVOTE... so that 'ballot' got closed! Somehow it got 'registered' that I DID 'vote'... But it did NOT put MY vote where I wanted it! WHY did it not COUNT where I PUT it? ANOTHER 'glitch'???

OR... SIX votes... EACH with 25% of the TOTAL! How does THAT work????

ANOTHER glitch??

    They had a message recently on the main page about unexpected downtime which they were working on. The voting is still wrong with some answers having 100% then 0%. Various other glitches too..It often happens after maintenance Hopefully they will fix it soon.

    It's another glitch with Yahoo Answers. It's been happening a lot lately, to myself included. But don't worry, your vote still counts. It's still submitted.

    I voted for a question today and all answers had 0% Votes.

    Have you clicked the refresh button? If not try it. Back buttons won't work you gotta refresh. And it must be a glitch I have been having it alot.
