I've upvoted by mistake, and have never noticed any later bad effects.
I've downvoted when I meant to upvote before, however, and it's been frustrating not to have a way to counter that. That said, I tend to upvote about 10x more than I downvote, so it likely balances out.
On mobile devices the little arrow are pretty close. I almost never down-vote (on purpose at least) so I'm more worried about inadvertent down-voting when I meant to up-vote.
I apparently lost my ability to vote on comments because i voted on something too soon after it appeared on /comments, but as far as i'm concerned it's a net positive for me, so not catastrophic.
Nevertheless, the vote buttons are too small and too close together, and clearly weren't designed by someone who actually cared about the UI.

I can only imagine a good example for comments, but I have nothing specific.
