If a user nominated someone and wrote a really insightful post explaining their reasons, and this post was deserved by the person nominated, then I see no reason not to take that vote into account. If this happens systematically, then of course it will be rejected.
I was wondering why you Merited
my vote.
I don't think you're setting a good example though, when you tell people not to Merit posts but do it yourself:
