I don't know "why" they are voting for her, but because of how harshly they have downplayed her in everything that came afterwards (which is saying a lot), I don't think it's because they are cucks and if anything they probably didn't like that scene for exactly that reason. I've seen comments in the wikiru expressing distaste or pity for the Priestess, which is why I feel like I can say that with some confidence that it wasn't entirely well received (for good reason).
the best guess I can make is 1: gay futa is gay and 2: she's a magnet for karmic slapstick and keeps getting used to be made fun of so some people probably find her entertaining for that.
And in all fairness the Prince going completely apeshit and beating her up before ripping her dick off (twice) is genuinely probably the funniest thing in the entirety of the game. As well as her getting hoisted up and kicked out by Vivi from his room when she tried to sneak in. And her being blown up. And her being hit with a tree. And that time Chrome rocket punched her into the sky. And-

I'm kinda impressed but it seems she's actually loved for a lot of reasons that go beyond just her appearance, like how useful and helpful she is for a lot of people with her barriers apparently. It seems like she's gotten First Place every single time they ran a poll. I suppose her place is firmly cemented there. The rest of the poll seems influenced by gameplay as well as girl as well though; seems the most popular girls are units perceived as a combination of both strong and very cute.
