Prime Minister

General elections were held in Tuvalu on 12 September 1985. As there were no political parties, all candidates for the twelve seats ran as independents, with nine of the incumbents retaining their seats. Tomasi Puapua was re-elected Prime Minister following the elections.

Results

Nine incumbent members were re-elected, including Prime Minister Tomasi Puapua and Minister of Finance Henry Naisali. On 21 September, Tomasi Puapua was re-elected as Prime Minister; he subsequently appointed a five-member Cabinet.
