Question

Greetings-I am having problems with the following code. Results are supposed to be:

Enter your vote <Tichen:1, Orator:2, end:-1> 1

Enter your vote <Tichen:1, Orator:2, end:-1> 1

Enter your vote <Tichen:1, Orator:2, end:-1> 2

Enter your vote <Tichen:1, Orator:2, end:-1> 2

Enter your vote <Tichen:1, Orator:2, end:-1> 3

ERROR!! Please enter 1 or 2

Enter your vote <Tichen:1, Orator:2, end:-1> 1

Enter your vote <Tichen:1, Orator:2, end:-1> 2

Enter your vote <Tichen:1, Orator:2, end:-1> -1

Total Number of votes: 6

Tichen: 3 (50%)

Oraton: 3 (50%)

It is a Tie.

---------------------------------------------------------------

//below is my code

import java.utilScanner;

public class VoteTally4
{

public static void main (Strings [] args)
{
//declare variables
//number of votes for Tichen
int voteTichen;
//number of votes for Orator
int voteOrator;
//total votes for Tichen
int totalTichen;
//total votes for Orator
int totalOrator;
//winner
int winner;

//create scanner
scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

//explain to voter how to vote
System.out.println("To cast your vote: Tichen = 1; Orator = 2, To Exit press '-1'");

//create switches
switch(vote)
{
case 1: vote tichen;
System.out.println("To cast your vote: Tichen press number 1");
System.out.println("Cast your vote, please");
voteTichen = scan.nextInt();
break;

case 2: vote orator;
system.out.println("To cast your vote for Orator press number 2");
System.out.println("Cast your vote, please");
voteOrator = scan.nextInt();
break;
}
{
else
System.out.println("To exist press number -1 as in negative one");
System.out.println("Press number -1, please");
}

//calculate results
if (totalTichen > totalOrator)
System.out.println("Tichen wins!");
else if(totalOrator > totalTichen)
System.out.println("Orator wins!");
}
else
{

System.out.println("Error, please enter correct number");
Scanner.out();
}
}
