An election is a formal group decision-making process by which a population chooses a candidate by casting votes. Each candidate is assigned name and a specific symbol. A ballot paper is used to cast the vote. Each ballot paper contains symbols of the candidate. A person can vote a candidate by stamping on a specific symbol. The ballot paper should be considered as a spoilt ballot if a person does not stamp or stamp on more than one symbol. Finally ballot paper has to be dropped in a ballot box. Write a C++ program that reads the information from the user to enter the name of the candidate, the total number of received votes, and the spoilt votes in a local election. The total number of participants (candidates) are 5. If the user mistakenly enters any negative value, the program should consider that value as a positive integer. The program should output the name, total received votes, and the percentage of obtained votes by the winning candidate. The program should also display the percentage of the spoilt votes.
