I guess it's a lot more forgivable if you're precommitted to reading past the summary, but it still feels icky to me. For one thing, if you upvote based on an initial impression and then read the full post, it'll probably bias your later evaluation of the post in the direction of your initial vote, because cognitive dissonance.
