Why is Craig Grant able to increase a post reward by $140 with a single vote?

Indeed why? Why is this person getting so much more now when hard fork 19 is supposed to be about equality? Steemit has levels and the bare data is out of date but it is used to be illustrative nothing more.
The table has various invested amounts going up by factors of ten. Except for the dust user which has 0 money. With this data set the user accounts and newbies go from having no effect to something you can see on the chart.
I think Craig Grant may be a "super-user". Because of the way we go from a square pattern to a linear pattern his voting power which might have been $0.25 before the hard fork, has now gone up by about 600x. To those of you who say that is excessive, lets just say the unfair system is what he was getting before and now it is proportional to what you have invested. If you are a user that has been around but have a tenth of Craig Grant's Steem Power, your voting power has gone up by a factor of 6000x. If you're a newbie, your voting power has gone up by 60,000! So, who should be jealous of whom?
Those in the 'supermod' category will now have less influence than before.

Agreed. Seeing a lot of hellish about this guy in particular. Not gonna lie, I'm super jealous too, but I'm happy to put my time and effort in. It's fun to interact with people here, and the ones complaining about his upvotes strike me as fair weather fans. They seem to only be here for the money.
I'd had similar amount of steempower like Craig and my upvote before HF19 was $5. So you need to try better if you're wrong on first assumption. I don't know nothing about this, but I'm think that you need to do more research and calculation.
As indicated in the article, it is only illustrative. I don't really pay attention to what other people's voting power is normally. This is just how the things would change had this old steem level data and if it is from $5 to $140, then instead of having exactly 1 MVests he might have around 30 or 40. The higher the amount, the lower the multiplier for hf19.
I couldn't find API calls that would allow me to recreate this table for the current block chain. Like how do I get the list of all steemit usernames? I don't know.
