Indeed, it would be nice if bugzilla reminded you that you have votes
for closed bugs. Every time I go to vote for a bug, I remove my votes
from any closed bugs (which are obvious with the strikethrough text).
But I don't notice that until I go to vote for one. If it reminded me
every time I logged in that I have votes for closed bugs, then I might
pay better attention.
Why do you feel the need to remove your votes from closed bugs when
you're not about to place one on another bug?
This has been discussed extensively on Mozilla's own bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27553
I don't feel like pouring through a bugzilla discussion, but the reason is
because I may have gone to vote for an issue, but found I was out of
votes, and I want to keep my existing ones (or I had to cancel another bug
vote in order to vote for the new one). At a later time when one of my
voted-for bugs gets resolved, then I can vote for the issue I couldn't
vote on, or removed my vote from.
To this end, if bugzilla could remember bugs I "unofficially" voted for,
that would be good too :)
