Rachel, that's a good hypothetical situation. If Person B voted to reject the message, they'd need to supply a reason, which would probably involve selecting from the list of forum guidelines. If it's not legitimate, hopefully there wouldn't be enough users voting to reject to actually reject the post, but if they did, I would review all rejected posts and if I disagreed I would likely approve the post. Not liking someone wouldn't be a legitimate reason. Using profanity, posting copyrighted articles, viciously attacking another user, etc. would be. I wouldn't expect all users to interpret the rules the same as me and exceptions would be expected, but if I decided that a user is doing an inappropriate job moderating that user would be warned and/or lose moderation privileges.
In any case, one user voting to reject wouldn't reject a post. 2 or 3 probably reject votes would probably be required. Remember, worst case a message is rejected, I review it and either overturn the decision or leave it as is and if reject votes are made, but not more than the threshold, the message would just be in the queue until enough reject it or I review it. The idea is basically to speed up the moderation process by getting users who demonstrate an ability to enforce the rules to help. If there was a lot of abuse, the users who abuse the system would lose moderation privileges, leaving only those who actually moderate according to accepted guidelines. I guess in the worst case system some people might get mad or think they're being treated unfairly, but everyone will need to trust that I'll guide everyone in the right direction and if it doesn't work, we could go back to the current way.
