Polling data obtained by Sky News indicates that Liberal Premier Jeremy Rockliff is expected to make gains in the Tasmania state election but may fall short of the 18 seats required for a majority government. The Liberal Party is likely to rely on the Jacqui Lambie Network to secure a majority, with Senator Jacqui Lambie's party potentially becoming the king-maker. In a separate development, Labor has decided not to field a candidate in the upcoming Cook by-election triggered by former prime minister Scott Morrison's departure.
