Well done !
The chances are that vote would also have been in favour of remaining British.
Truth be told, one of them was near-blind and crossed the wrong box, one was pissed drunk, and the third was a nice old lady who lives on the outskirts of Port Stanley, she was concerned a unanimous pro-UK vote would hurt the poor Argies feelings.
Apparently there were three votes against the UK.

That latter observation is probably spot-on. It would look odd were such a vote unanimous and it would not surprise me if the local leaders didn't ask a few people to vote against the majority just to prevent questions of vote rigging by the Argies.
