With multiple votes, I don't see why that would be an issue at all. No one need feel a vote is "wasted," since he can vote for as many books as he'd like. I think it makes it more likely that a dark horse could win, in fact. People don't have to play it safe, as they might feel would be best if they could only vote for one.
