I wouldn't be so sure. See the "Anti-Voting Manipulation" section 
here:

https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented

"One popular "trick" for obfuscating voting manipulation on 
Hacker News is to link to the Hacker News's /newest page of new 
submissions (instead of a direct link which would otherwise make 
voting manipulation obvious), and asking friends to upvote the 
submission from that page. This trick doesn't actually work."

I suspect they track HTTP referrers and red flag multiple hits to 
the same link from the same referrer. However they do it, I would 
expect linking directly to search results is something they 
account for.
