Thanks much for the response! You're right I removed the vote_ids attribute 
and also the has_many association since it seems the association is added 
with the acts_as_voteable call on the top of model and the votes are still 
working fine for Most amount of ratings and Least amount of ratings.

Although I haven't had luck yet with:

has "SUM(CASE vote WHEN TRUE THEN 1.0 ELSE -1.0 END)", :as => :plusminus, 
:type => :float

It seems like it should work the way you have it, although when I filter 
the results it doesn't show the top rated results.

I get something like this:

Person1 Person2 Person3 Person4

+5  +1  +2  +8

Instead of:

Person4 Person1 Person3 Person2

+8  +5  +2  +1

(Think I used a different email for the response and it wasn't showing up 
on the board so reposting it here.)
