Answer 1

first things first bracketing seems to be your error here when you begin a while loop the syntax is like this

while(conditional){

//code to be done while this is true

} also, i would suggest switching to an if else statement.

Answer 2

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int a,b,c;

int v = 1;

float z;

char y,n;

int main()

{

do  // use do while loop  

{

cout<<"  HOLY CROSS COLLEGE OF CARIGARA HIGHSCHOOL STUDENT COUNCIL ELECTION \n"<<endl;

    cout<<" President:      "<<endl;

cout<<" 1.  Allyson   "<<endl;

cout<<" 2.  Lyka    "<<endl;

cout<<" 3.  Justin      "<<endl;

cout<<" Input the number you want to vote."<<endl;

cout<<" To finish voting, type 4"<<endl;

cin>>z;

if (z == 1)

    {

a++;

v = v + 1;

}

if (z == 2)

    {

b++;

v = v + 1;

}

if (z == 3)

    {

c++;

v = v + 1;

}

if (z == 4)

    {

cout<< " Thank you for voting. "<<endl;

break;

}

{

cout<<"\nYou voted for: \n"<<a<<" -Allyson \n"<<b<<" -Warren \n" <<c<<" -JMOA \n";

}

cout<<" Do You Want To Continue? ( y or n )<<"<<endl;

cin>>y;

}

while (y=='y') 
     

}
