I hope you’re joking. The privacy of how one votes is foundational. It’s how you feel safe voting against the government in a democracy. The perceived lack of it has been a conservative lying point fighting mail in ballots. This is a worse example. Far worse.
Is it true, though, the voting record being public?
Yes. The fact that you vote or not, is a matter of public record. How you vote is not a matter of public record.
Thanks for the clarification.
I’m from Finland, where even the idea of knowing who voted or not is totally absurd.
You can see if they voted, not how:

I wasn’t joking, just wondering if that it could be true.
