Interestingly, at just 1K votes per second sustained for 10 hours, you could record a vote for the entire population of California! At 2K/sec for 12 hours, you could record votes for every single person in California, Texas, New York, and Florida! 

As for the question at hand, depending on how long you expect your voting to run, you may want to make sure your database is set up well enough to handle inserts at that speed when you're pushing past 80M votes, especially considering that the biggest rush probably occurs toward the end of a voting period.
