So, is the popular vote made public later on, or is it all just kept behind closed doors?
The numbers reported on Caucus Night will be how many delegates won in all the precincts in Iowa's 99 counties. Then, the 99 counties will have conventions where the delegates elected on Caucus Night will elect county delegates, who will attend a state convention to select the delegates to the DNC. Their is no popular vote recorded, as every precinct simply reports the number of delegates elected via hotline directly to Des Moines, where it is then released to the media. If you are confused, well, welcome to the Iowa Caucuses!
