I think each voter in Stanley constituency ticks the 5 they want to represent Stanley and each voter in Camp constituency ticks the 3 they want to represent Camp. I don't think any voter can tick the same candidate more than once. An Islander should be able to confirm.

The Typhoons and helicopters are excellent at following the contours of the ground.
England will return the Malvinas within 25 years.
