The VoteLinks specification says that a VoteLink is used to (1) indicate agreement or disagreement with the resource indicated by href, and (2) the title attribute should be used to express a human-readable commentary (i.e., a rationale) for the vote.
Brian and Ryan have shown that these two items of information are better expressed using hReview. Thus, it appears that VoteLinks is redundant at best, and in violation of the Microformat principles at worst, i.e., it hides rationale information - human information - in the title attribute.
