We are building a database of Bed and Breakfasts, along with user-based votes in favor or against those venues. In order to build this list of Bed and Breakfasts, we'll provide an application that allows users to give a "+1" or a "-1" to a particular place -- a hybrid combination of Reddit-style voting on a Yelp-style database.
Our task is to build the controller and model methods required to implement the JSON API that the message processor will use to store votes. We will not need to build any front-end components to handle the voting.
