I gather you mean "thumbs up/down" buttons.

No.  As Chris points out, the PEP process is not a voting process.  (I
think that's what he meant.  I would say that it is "democratic" in
the sense that as much as possible we try to come to consensus on a
"best" proposal.)  And people do switch as PEPs evolve, but I doubt
they'd be likely to change their "vote" on the PEP site.

Links to the discussion (or perhaps even blog posts of folks who
strongly dissent) are far more relevant.
