* Independents and other minor parties together: this poll didn't report independents separately.

Figures as each pollster published them, with undecided voters excluded. Polls before the July 2025 election are as tabled on Wikipedia, linked on each row. uComms asked undecided voters which way they leaned, so its figures are Kevin Bonham's conversion. "Other" includes SFF and Nationals. One Nation was first offered as an option in February 2026.

Take the most recent poll from each pollster whose fieldwork ended in the last 90 days, and average their published figures. Each pollster counts once. There's no weighting for sample size, method or past accuracy, and no adjustment of any kind. Commissioned polls stay out unless you tick the box above.

For earlier periods the same rule runs at each poll date, and the average starts afresh at each election so polls from before an election don't count after it. Between 2014 and 2018 EMRS was often the only pollster in the field, so the line there is mostly EMRS. Earlier polls also came from ReachTEL, Roy Morgan, MediaReach, YouGov, Redbridge and Wolf & Smith.

The page shows no seat numbers. Turning Hare-Clark primary votes into seats depends on quotas, candidate draw and preference flows that polls don't measure. For seat estimates and analysis of each poll, see Kevin Bonham's blog.

Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, read all 611 releases in full. Each one gets a main issue, a second issue where there's a clear one, and one type:

• Announce: the government reporting something it has done or will do.
• Criticise: going after an opponent or their record.
• Advocate: arguing for a policy or backing a group.
• Other: condolences and formal statements.

The issue chart counts main issues. Open an issue to see how many more releases have it as their second issue. in the tone figures but not the issue chart.

Keeping it current. New releases are added automatically twice a day and coded the same way. Earlier releases aren't re-coded, and the figures always cover the 90 days to the newest release.

Limits. One AI coder made every call, so borderline cases are judgement. The Liberals' figures are government releases from the Premier's website, so they aren't like-for-like with the opposition parties' releases. Social media, ads, speeches and parliament aren't included.

Union: trade unions and union peak bodies. Business and industry: companies, family companies and trusts, and industry associations such as the Pharmacy Guild or the Hotels Association. Individual: people giving in their own name, including MPs donating to their own party. Other party branches: money from Labor's national office and Victorian branch.

Not counted as donations: a $500,000 reportable loan to the Liberals from the Trustee for Gatenby Investment Fund in August 2025, and transfers from a party to its own candidates. Where the same donation appears in both the old and new TEC registers it is counted once. Individual donors are not named here, but every disclosure is public on the TEC website.

In the 2024-25 panel, "Party and associated entities" means money from other branches of the same party and from entities the AEC lists as associated with it, Unions that the AEC lists as associated entities of Labor are counted as unions. "Not itemised" is the rest of each party's total receipts, from sources under the $16,900 threshold, plus membership, fundraising and public funding.

The two panels cover different periods and use different thresholds, so their figures can't be added or compared directly.

The register of lobbyists is kept by the Integrity Commission. It covers third-party lobbyists: firms paid to lobby for a client. Organisations that lobby for themselves, such as industry bodies, unions and companies with their own government relations staff, aren't on it. Registration is required under the Government's lobbying code of conduct, which is a policy, not a law.

Firms list the clients they currently lobby for, so the register has no history and no record of meetings. A bill from Meg Webb MLC would add a public log of lobbying contacts. It hasn't passed.

Party ties. A firm is marked only where a named principal or founder has held a senior, publicly documented role with a party: an MP, a minister, chief or deputy chief of staff to a Premier or minister, or senior adviser to a Premier or Prime Minister. A firm with principals from both major parties is marked as having Liberal and Labor ties, and shows under both filters. Other firms may have staff with party backgrounds that aren't marked here. A firm with ties to one party can still work with all parties, and a mark says nothing about how a firm or its clients behave.

Unions that lobby for themselves aren't on the register, which is why few appear here.

Industry groupings (shown when you hover or filter) were made for this page from each client's name and public description, so some judgement is involved. Client names are shown as each firm lists them. Collected from the register on 13 October 2026.

House of Assembly first preferences as counted by the Tasmanian Electoral Commission. The house had 25 seats until it went back to 35 at the 2024 election.

Each sitting day's Hansard transcript is downloaded from the Parliament of Tasmania and every question in Question Time is read off it: its title, who asked it and which minister answered. Supplementary questions, constituency questions and answers to questions on notice aren't counted. Recent days use the uncorrected proof, which can change slightly in the final Hansard.

Issues come from the title Hansard gives each question, matched to the issue groups used for media releases, so a few questions may sit in a neighbouring group. Party is the member's party at the time: Helen Burnet's questions before 2 January 2026 count as Greens. Estimates weeks have no Question Time and aren't included. Where a question title names a private individual, the name is left out here.

These are questions, not votes. How members vote in divisions is recorded in Hansard too and could be added later.

Chamber. Every speech in the Senate and the House of Representatives from OpenAustralia's copy of Hansard, counting each member's words, excluding interjections. Ranks are against everyone who sat in that chamber in the period.

Estimates and committees. Every committee transcript published on the Parliament of Australia website since July 2025: Estimates hearing days and other committee hearings. Words are counted for each senator by name. Whoever chairs a hearing is recorded as "Chair", so a chair's words aren't credited to them here. For House MPs only committee hearings are shown, as Estimates is a Senate process.

Topics. Each chamber speech is grouped by the title of the debate it was part of, so a speech in a bill debate counts toward that bill's subject. Procedural business and tributes are left out. "Tasmania in the title" is the share of a member's chamber words spoken in debates whose titles name Tasmania or a Tasmanian place.

Time. Hours are estimated from words spoken, at 140 words a minute, so they're a guide to time on the record rather than a stopwatch. Rankings use the words themselves.
