If I were to play devil's advocate myself, I'd say this was an experiment in how a small clique can still dominate an award with an open vote.

Given the winners though,
John C Wright, Larry Correia, Terry Pratchett, David Weber, Naomi Novak, Nick Cole, Brian Niemeier.
Which of these have anything to do with Vox?
Had a quick search before posting and the Nick Cole one was published by Vox (Had him mixed up with Myke Cole in my head) but seems to have a pretty solid goodreads rating.
I don't know Brian Niemeier and I don't like John C Wright's stuff, but everything there seems pretty popular.
