Regierungsbildung. Westminster system with 24 single-member FPTP seats; 13 is a majority. The PM holds office while commanding a majority. In 2026 the incumbent says he kept his warrants (RNZ, 27 Aug 2026). No first-sitting date for the 19th Parliament was found. In 2022, petitions delayed the first sitting by 7½ months. Nicht vor . Präzedenzfall: 11 Tage nach dem Wahltag.

    Polls close at 6 p.m. local time, UTC−10 (Electoral Act 2004 s.49). Presiding officers announce booth results, and returning officers announce each seat's total 'forthwith' (s.74(3)–(4)). 2026: RNZ (13 Aug 2026) reported preliminary results for several seats 'as of 10pm local time' on 12 Aug. A per-candidate 'Preliminary count of Votes' PDF was posted on the Parliament site on 13 Aug (22:14Z) and updated on 14 Aug (23:22Z). Nassau voted on 13 Aug after a weather delay. 2022 precedent (vote 1 Aug): RNZ reported initial projections on 3 Aug 2022. The window closes at the end of 14 Aug local time. No observedAt: the preliminary PDFs are neither dated nor signed by the Chief Electoral Officer. The preliminary count excludes special and late votes, and seats changed at the final count (Pukapuka–Nassau in 2026; Titikaveka and Ngatangiia in 2022).

    No statutory deadline: after the scrutiny of the rolls and the final count (Electoral Act 2004 ss.76–77), the Chief Electoral Officer declares the result by warrant (s.78). Precedent: 2022 (vote 1 Aug) was declared by warrant dated 11 Aug 2022 (Gazette 17/2022), day 10. Window (set late): start of 19 Aug 2026 local time (day 7) to end of 1 Sep 2026 (day 20), twice the 2022 lag. Actual: the CEO's warrant, Gazette No. 17/2026, is dated 26 Aug 2026 (day 14) and was first posted on the Parliament Gazette site at 26 Aug 2026 11:27 local time (21:27:39Z). Cook Islands News (26 Aug 2026) reported the final count was done the previous night. Petitions: s.92 allows 7 days after the declaration. Cook Islands News (3 Sep 2026) reported three petitions filed (Avatiu–Ruatonga–Palmerston, Matavera, Pukapuka–Nassau); a Court certificate under s.104 may change those seats. In 2022, the petitions were resolved in Dec 2022 (Gazette 26/2022) and in Mar 2023.

    The King's Representative appoints as Prime Minister the member who commands a majority (Constitution art. 13(2)(b)), and no fixed date follows the declaration. 2022 precedent: the Queen's Representative appointed Mark Brown by a letter 'given' on 12 Aug 2022, the day after the 11 Aug declaration. The letter cites his advice dated 11 Aug, following Public Notice No. 9 (Gazette 18/2022, on the Parliament site as Letter-of-Appointment-Hon.-Mark-Brown-as-Prime-Minister.pdf). In 2022, Parliament did not sit until 21 Mar 2023 because petitions were pending (Cook Islands News, 22 Mar 2023). 2026, press only: RNZ (27 Aug 2026) quotes Brown that, on Crown Law advice, he 'has held his warrants' because he won his seat and commands a majority. We found no official 2026 appointment document, so observedAt is not set. The window opens on the declaration day, 26 Aug local time.
