In the St Ives constituency, adverse weather had meant boats and a Royal Naval Air Service helicopter from the outer islands of the Isles of Scilly were unable to reach the main island of St Mary's.
Andrew Walder, a skipper for Tresco Boats, ferried the final votes from St Martin's and St Agnes on Friday morning after conditions had "much improved".
"The wait is nearly over!" Mr Walder told the PA news agency.
"We usually are last to declare. (That's) life on the Isles of Scilly - at the mercy of the weather this time of year.
"Generally why elections are held in the summer!"
After vote counting was suspended early on Friday morning, Cornwall Council said it hopes to reopen at Truro College at 14:30 to restart.
St Ives will be the last of 650 seats to declare.
