Waiting the for page to fully load, leaving the page and come back, picking the other candidate, none of these change anything. Only clicking "neither" will resolve a bugged match immediately, otherwise I can keep clicking a vote 30-40 times before it will move on.
I have experienced this as well. Waiting a minute or two then refreshing fixes it, but yeah.

Seems like if your nation got an upvote earlier on it is likely to remain in the top and receive more chances for votes, while if your nation was rate down once, or never rated you're unlikely to ever make the top 30k.
Randomness is like that! It's not a round robin where all nations would be voted on the same number of times.
Once the event is six hours old, you are less likely to be asked to vote on nations with few/no votes. Beginning then, there will indeed be a kind of snowball effect. But nations earn points based on the quality of the nations they are preferred over, so they can catch up quickly. That is, it's better to be preferred once over a popular nation than to be preferred several times over an unpopular one.
Right now, though, it is purely random draws.
But what will happen to nations who have gotten no votes in the first 6 hour period?
Seems like any nation which took a long time to first show up will be excluded from any chance of getting a high ranking if low vote nations will be shown less after the first 6 hours.
