If a user already has a vote of weight 3, and they try to vote for another entry using a weight of 3, pop up a :confirm that clarifies that if they go through with the new vote of weight 3, the old one will be lost.

If they go through with it, maybe think about displaying a link to the old entry, so that they can click on it immediately (presumably to assign it another value, since they're adjusting what they want to vote for) instead of going back to the gallery pages and looking for it again.

(Alternatively, make a new UI that has you select up to three entries, and then assign vote weights between them ajaxly. Actually that sounds terrible and complicated, and if you changed your mind and wanted to vote for a different entry than one of the ones in your top 3, we'd have to come up with a UI where you chose which of your old top 3 you wanted to punt in favor of the new one... never mind)
