Tassie heads to the polls as the Liberals leave the building

Fight for your principles. Fight for your base. Fight to win...

Tonight, the Tasmanian Governor, who had previously acted appropriately by stalling an election, has capitulated at the request of Rockliff and Tasmanians will head to the polls on July 19.

This should never have happened, and, in my opinion, while Rockliff is hardly a conservative, he was let down by the Liberal Party that was supposed to support him.

Alexandra Marshall had this to say in the Unfiltered newsletter:

Crazy news, Tasmania is headed to the polls! Michael de Percy writes: ‘Tonight, the Tasmanian Governor, who had previously acted appropriately by stalling an election, has capitulated at the request of Rockliff and Tasmanians will head to the polls on July 19.’ Will the Liberal Party be returned?
