The votes are kept secret only for the DPL elections.

See Debian constitution 4.2.3:
Votes are taken by the Project Secretary. Votes, tallies, and results are not revealed
during the voting period; after the vote the Project Secretary lists all the votes cast.
The voting period is 2 weeks, but may be varied by up to 1 week by the Project
Leader.

And Debian constitution 5.2.5:
The next three weeks are the polling period during which Developers may cast their
votes. Votes in leadership elections are kept secret, even after the election is
finished.

The votes are at <http://master.debian.org/~srivasta/gr_non_free_tally.txt>
as mentionned in the article.
