Sure, no matter the situation, anyone can lie on their taxes. It's a lot easier to get away with it if there's no evidence.

This assumes all the voters would have still come out to vote, and that they would have voted for the 2nd place candidate. There are a lot of people who swing between the PC and Liberals. There are other, weirder swings too. Plus, many people may have found both the 1st and 2nd place candidates undesirable, so even given some sort of RCV, they wouldn't have ranked.

Plus, cash doesn't leave a paper trail. Though I'm sure this pub will accurately report their sales! /s

I think you're on to something.

I also think there's a difference in where the network effect kicks in for different types of social media. IMHO, Lemmy has just enough activity to not feel empty, and even then I wish there was more comments to interact with and more niche communities. With Pixelfed, I feel like as long as there's enough interesting posts it makes sense for people to visit regularly.
