Why? It's my experience that wolves like to get rid of the loudest players early, usually through lynching because they can, and so leave the village to lose through quietness. And just because you're openly covering your tracks doen't mean you aren't covering your tracks.

And about Jenny's vote: it wasn't thrown away because if she had actually thrown it away and voted for Mithalwen, say, then Kuru could have sanctioned my death. So Jenny's vote was vital. I was tied on 3 votes with Nogrod, and there were 2 votes left to come. Unless I am reading this wrongly, you just made a completely false statement, Roa.

You are reading it wrongly. as I just stated, it was fairly certain the Kuru would vote for someone he had already found suspicious, which wasn't you or Nogrod. All you've done is point out how Jenny saved you. Which, if you are a wolf, as I am beginning to suspect, looks rather bad for her.
