So the real issue with voat is downvote?

The issue is not the downvote but how the system reacts to down votes. Down votes combined with up votes are a really good measure of a post. If a post has nothing but downvotes it is near 100% worthless but if it has lots of up and down votes it could be really good. Have a look at posts on Notabug where anon can vote as many times as they like.
