    Two methods:

    • Client Side: Set into cookie (article IDs for last 5 or 10 votes ) and do not allow to vote again. This is easily hackable but allows you to implement without any database changes!
    • Server side: track each and every vote up and vote down in a table like <{userID}, {vote UP/DOWN}, {articleID}>

    StackOverflow uses database to store all this data. They also lock your vote after some period so you cannot undo your action.
