I can agree that removing the votes completely is not the right option. Perhaps show the names of those who have voted on all RFCs, but not specifically which way they voted. This would allow users to see how many votes have been casted, as well as allow the vote reason to appear (if added). Also on own RFCs I think it’d be good to see if you can see the current tally’s.
