Voting Power does not update until a new vote is cast. #23

The value in "voting_power" returned from steemd.get_account("myaccount") does not update until after I make a new vote on steemit.com. The value will update to the correct "Voting Power" after I cast a new vote, however it does not update again until I cast another vote. It appears to not take into account the replenishing of the Voting Power until a new vote is cast under your account. Steemd.com appears to have the correct value. Any ideas what is going on, it seems steemdb.com has the same lag. Thanks!

This is how steem works and you have to calculate it yourself using the time since the last vote.
