The people who signed up for automated voting probably aren't reading them. It's supposed to be their favorite bloggers but I am going to bet their favorites are all high rep accounts. I manually vote my faves and it seems like having it done automatically kind of removes incentive to read it.

Probably isn't definitely. We simply do not know whether they are a team manually reading the posts or partially automated where they read the posts after the fact, or fully automated where they never read the posts. In general it's going to be hard to scale curation to a level where curators have time to read every post UNLESS the posts are shorter.
So again it favors short concise posting because it takes less time to read. Some people complain about posts being too short, and if the posts are longer then of course curators will tend to read the long posts from the established posters. I don't have any good solution which would make the system perfect but I appreciate the discussion so problems can be noted.
Is there any thing bloggers can do about this?
