For the buttons, I propose something bolder: don't *duplicate* them, *move* them. The logical time to make a voting decision is when you've read a post, so I agree they belong at the bottom. But why have them at the top? Currently we bundle the *reporting of existing votes* and the *voting buttons* together, but we don't have to. We could find a way to *show existing votes* at the top but have the buttons to *cast* votes at the bottom. Why do they need to go together? (I agree with the suggestion in a comment to break this into two posts, so I'm addressing the one in your title but not the other issue you raised.)
