A referendum on reforming the voting system was held in the Falkland Islands on 3 November 2011.[1] Voters were asked "Do you want a single constituency for the whole of the Islands?"[1] The proposal required a two-thirds majority in both of the islands' constituencies,[2] but was rejected by 58.78% of voters overall; in Stanley it was narrowly approved by 50.2% of voters but in Camp it was widely rejected, with 84% voting against.[2] Turnout was 70% in Camp and just 39% in Stanley.[2]
