I am having a problem with adding votes or incrementing 1 vote to counter variables only after the app is exited using the X in the top right hand corner of the window. Is there a way to do this either making the variables "counter" [1 through 6] GLOBAL or coding other variables to assign the totals of all the votes for those specific candidates added or created by my previous app?
I'm trying to create a login system that logs/stores each voter [csv files or database] after form fill out then allows voting, both placed on loop so after voting it goes back to login window but validates not allowing same info to vote again. after voting_card.py exits it will write total tallies into a results file that can be viewed as a gui written window.
I've tried global or $ variables but received errors and unexpected results.
