Answer 1

import java.util.*;

public class VotingMachine {
    
    private int democrateVote;
    private int republicanVote;
    
    // Create a class constructor for the VotingMachine class
    public VotingMachine(){
        democrateVote = 0;
        republicanVote = 0;
    }
    
    // Increases the count of democrate vote
    private void voteForDemocrat(){
        democrateVote++;
    }
    
    // Increases the count for republican vote
    private void voteForRepublican(){
        republicanVote++;
    }
    
    // Clearing votes
    private void clearVotes(){
        this.democrateVote = 0;
        this.republicanVote = 0;
    }
    
    
    // This shows the summary of votes
    private void printResults(){
        System.out.println("Total votes for Democrate: "+this.democrateVote+" and total vote for republican: "+this.republicanVote);
    }
    
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        VotingMachine vm = new VotingMachine();
        
        // Voting 4 times for Republican
        vm.voteForRepublican();
        vm.voteForRepublican();
        vm.voteForRepublican();
        vm.voteForRepublican();
        
        //Voting 3 times for Democrate
        vm.voteForDemocrat();
        vm.voteForDemocrat();
        vm.voteForDemocrat();
        
        // Pritning the final result
        vm.printResults();
        
        //Clearing votes
        vm.clearVotes();
        
        // Pritning votes after clearing
        vm.printResults();
    }
}

Output:

Total votes for Democrate: 3 and total vote for republican: 4
Total votes for Democrate: 0 and total vote for republican: 0
