Idea voting extension on VF page

I'm trying to use custom buttons to set the Vote object as "Up" or "Down". I have the buttons up, but I'm having trouble with the beginning part of the extension. I am still fairly new to apex.

Any help would be appreciated!

VF Page Sample 
<apex:form >
                   <apex:commandButton styleclass="btn-lg btn-data" value="Vote Up" action="{!setValue1}"/>
                   <apex:commandButton styleclass="btn-lg btn-data" value="Vote Down" action="{!setValue2}"/>
                   </apex:form>


Extension so far 
public class detailExt{
public myControllerExtension(ApexPages.StandardController stdController) {
         public Vote setVote {get; set;}

public void setValue1() {
    setVote.Type = 'Up';
    setVote.ParentId = Idea.Id;
}
public void setValue1() {
    setVote.Type = 'Down';
    setVote.ParentId = Idea.Id;
}



}
}

Hi Brother!

I think you need to insert Vote record after setting Type and Parent id. Can you please try to insert setVote on the next line of setvote.ParentId = Idea.Id;

Please try and let me know if you still face any issue.
