votes is not declared.
Also can you put the actual error message that you are getting?

There is no error in your Comment.

Please Ensure the Followings,

1. Include the following Namespace in your Code

using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Linq;

2.Declare the Variable "votes"

Hope it Helps!

Looks like no errors. Is the code file saved? :)
