I have the exact same question. I will place and up vote and see if my steem power changes, and say what happens here.
Okay, i just upvote the above blog, and as far as i can tell no numbers in my wallet have changed. Either voting is free, or it takes a while for the vote to kick in and your wallet to change.
STEEM POWER is not spent on votes.
(votes are totally free and can even bring you curation rewards)
