Let’s assume that everyone who upvoted their option also downvoted the alternative.
The group A, has |A| number of individuals. Group B has |B| number.
Option A: |A| - |B| Option B: |B| - |A| Option A = |A| - |B| = -(-(|A| - |B|)) = -(|B| - |A|) = -Option B
The results would be opposites of each other and would highlight the opinion of the majority anyway.
