As soon as someone voted it was set correctly.
Good theory, but I don't allow normal ratings, so there shouldn't have been any ratings for any of these photos before I started the contest.

When I "enable contest", I'm the first one to vote, after I do, there is only one vote showing, and it's mine. As time goes on and more people vote, the numbers reflect that. Then, a user saw that his vote didn't count, which prompted this thread. Since today was the last day to vote, I "ended" the voting, and it showed 6 votes for the winning photo. An hour or so later, it showed 1 vote for this photo. So my 'comments' table is accurate (as far as I can tell anyways), but my 'photos' table was updated one last time incorrectly.
