Perhaps you could have a radiobutton that is labeled "no opinion" and make it hilited by default on opencard, then on mousedown in the slider, uncheck the button? Then if the user changes his/her mind and wants to vote "no opinion" s/he could check the button again and the slider could revert to 0 (you would ignore these values anyway).
