Bad posts often get a strong karma hit initially when the most vigilant readers check them and later return towards zero. It is possible (although not likely) that two months from now the post would stand at +2, your vote contributing to the positive score.
I feel this is sufficiently improbable that I'm willing to take the risk. That said, you raise a good point, and I'll make a note to check on this two months from now and see how it turned out (if it's -5 or higher, I'll consider my vote to be "wrong", if it's -6 or lower, I'll consider it to have been good).
I was supposed to check on this a long time ago, but forgot/went inactive on LW, but the post actually ended up at -26, so seemingly slightly lower than it was, which is evidence against your regression to 0 theory.
