stuck with no errors

pettigree (1)
Evening guys. I am stuck and I have no clue where to turn to. I have looked through the logic of my code several times and the console doesn't throw any error messages, so I don't know where to go. The program builds correctly, however, when I go to run it, the entire program stalls and a windows error pops up. It basically says that the programs has stopped working. I'm not necessarily asking for handouts, but just someone to point me in the right direction. Show me what my mind is missing. Thanks ahead of time.

    for(int i = 0; i < length; i++){
        temp =+ votes[i];
    }

    for(int i = 0; i < length; i++){
        percent[i] = (votes[i]/temp) * 100;
    }
}

void printResults(const string names[], const int votes[], const double percent[], int length){
    cout << "Candidate" << setw(5) << "Votes Recieved" << setw(5) << "% of Total Votes" << endl;
    cout << endl;
    for(int i = 0; i < length; i++){
        cout << names[i] << setw(5) << votes[i] << setw(5) << percent[i] << endl;


    }

}


**update** i got it to output what I wanted with including:
in1 >> names[length] >> votes[length];
so it reads it in at least once. But still the windows error pops up. anyone have an idea why this is happening. I know this is an assignment, however, I already have solved the hw problem, I just don't get what's wrong.

check line 53 first, it might be one of suspects.
