Hi guys. Is it just me or the answers are not sorted correctly? The answer with more votes is supposed to go up, but in some cases, they are sorted probably by date. For example in the photo competition. photo.stackexchange.com/questions/126354/…

@Rafael Depends on your personal sorting preferences. You can select "Active", "Oldest", or "Votes", at the top of any question's answers section. The selection is persistent across Photo-SE, so you don't need to select it for each question.
... However... note that for the Photo Contest questions, links to the photo contests, either from the Meta question photo.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/7109/new-photo-contest, or from each's contest's self-link, there's a "?answertab=active#tab-top" (sort by active) URL query appended. If you arrived at a Photo Contest page by one of those links, then your site sort preferences are changed to "sort by active" (because the preference is persistent across the site).
That's probably what you're seeing

@Rafael I've opened a bug/feature request at Meta about this: meta.stackexchange.com/q/370869/175991
