Tasmania Election Results in Likely Hung Parliament

Liberals lead with largest vote share but fall short of majority, as minor parties and independents make significant gains.

The Liberal party, led by Premier Jeremy Rockliff, won the largest share of votes in the Tasmanian state election but fell short of a majority, leading to a likely hung parliament.
Minor parties and independents gained significant support, with the Greens and the Jacqui Lambie Network (JLN) increasing their share of votes.
The election was called more than a year early due to a minority government standoff, with the Liberals seeking a fourth consecutive term.
Final results are pending due to the complexity of the count under Tasmania’s Hare-Clark electoral system, with several seats still undecided.
The outcome may shift the political landscape in Tasmania, with a move towards minority governments and a significant role for minor parties and independents in governance.
