I'm going to go with what I perceive as common sense (chances are scum wouldn't want to vote for their buddy). Of the two folks who didn't vote for malth, I'd say popular is the more suspicious of the two. popular's post after the lynch and his vote for DBE seem like a buddying attempt (to town and to Mac), especially after his determined and prolonged attack on Mac.
I endorse this product or service.

No idea why you don't like him, really. I don't see his not voting as out of character; he was quite deliberate with his vote yesterday too.

Well, not as such, no. However, given that it no longer has any real relevance to this game, I'd suggest Mafia Discussion would be the correct forum to talk about it in. Preferably after this game is over, as without being able to link to the context it's used in would make discussing it difficult. The context is very important, and certainly makes it something I won't use regularly.
Anyway, now that I'm caught up in my new replacement game and elsewhere, some thoughts about how the end of yesterday.
Off the wagon:
Greasy Spot's replacement request looks quite genuine, so I'm not going to hold being off the wagon against him. Overall, no read due to lack of content. Would like to see participation today.
Amor being off the wagon is a little fishy, since he talked a good line about needing a lynch and Og being better than no lynch, but vanished a couple days before deadline and left his vote on DBE. Can't help but see this as a bit scummy. Still not at the top of my list, but on the scummy side of neutral.
Travis flaked, so I can't really hold being off the wagon against Xofelf. Again, still not enough content here to make much of a decision yet.
populartajo being off the wagon reinforces the idea that he could be scum. I put forth most of my reasoning for this yesterday, I think. Good bandwagon target for today. I may move my vote here from DBE after thinking about it more.
Couple things on the wagon that caught my attention:
Despite the possibility of bussing, I consider DBE's vote a mild town tell. Mild because if scum, she could still hope he wasn't hammered, and probably knew I'd be jumping all over her today if a lack of her vote caused a no lynch. It certainly doesn't cancel out her other scumtells, but is a point in her favor worth considering.
goborage voting with reasoning seems townlike, as does his vote and reasoning for populartajo today. Still not ruling out the possibility he could be scum, but he's moving back towards neutral. Would still like to see better participation today.
Coheed making a point of voting for OG when I pointed out how we needed to vote is a bit odd, considering he was already voting her. Could be scum making a point of being seen on his buddy's wagon. This is a relatively small thing, but combined with how he lurked through most of Day 1, I think Coheed is worth keeping a close eye on.
