General elections were held in Tuvalu on 12 September 1985.[1] As there were no political parties, all candidates for the 12 seats ran as independents, with nine of the incumbents retaining their seats.[2] Tomasi Puapua was re-elected Prime Minister following the elections.[2]
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.[2]
