Upgrading a wayspot literally does nothing?

Hello everyone and thanks for answering!
Three days ago my bf and I started submitting new portals in our area. That same day we started reviewing like crazy in wayfarer to try and get a couple of upgrades because our area doesn't have many pokestops or gyms, so we wanted to speed up things a bit. The 29th at night we got the upgrades and applied them, and next morning we got up to an upgraded pokestop still in queue and normal one, without upgrade, being voted (also the other upgraded one in the other account is in queue, but at least the other portals submited on 29th aren't in voting).
As I understood, upgrades were useful to speed up the queueing and voting process, making people from further locations review the submissions. Am I wrong and didn't understand it correctly? Do really upgrades make a difference?
P.S: I'm pretty sure the wayspot "Rutas del pueblo" didn't have the voting tag before going to bed.
Thank you!

A quite new submission, just wait a few days.
just a word of advice, you should have put the upgrade on something like the Fountain.
I do not know how people vote in your country,
This seems to be an "Germany-only" problem :(
All an upgrade does is let the nomination be seen by a larger pool of reviewers. It does not correlate to getting results faster.
i have seen that there is one trail marker in Alguaire that went thru. It seems to me that people will accept that.
Otherwise, all POI there are very good POI.
