Answer:
After the Cardinals have successfully elected a new Pope, white smoke is released from the chimney and the bells of the Sistine Chapel are rung to indicate that a decision has been made. This is the first public announcement that a new Pope has been elected.
Next the Proto-Deacon of the College of Cardinals walks out on a balcony and officially announces that they have a chosen a Pope and says who it is.
Usually, there is no release of official results. So you won't see who voted for who, or how many votes, etc. But Cardinal sometimes informally talk about the elections later and people can take an honest guess at the results.
