Is it loshon hora to downvote an answer on this website? I am asking this because perhaps it would be saying that someone has a bad answer, and maybe that would be giving off a bad impression of them.

Amoraim argue in the Gemoro; one disagrees with the view of the other. No implication is made as to the character/personality of the other. In MY we downvote the content of the question or answer and make no judgement as to the author. So it should not be loshon hora.– Avrohom YitzchokMar 29 at 16:32

In a case where the person is anonymous, I don't think it would be an issue. I generally try to avoid downvoting answers unless the answer was wrong (not incorrect, but bad) - but that's to avoid hurting someone's feelings, not lashon hara.– Kovy JacobMar 31 at 1:39
