It's a foregone conclusion isn't it?
SA is now firmly a Labor/Green state just like the apple isle.
I would be flabbergasted if Labor didn't win.

TASMANIA looks set to have a majority Liberal government on March 15, according to the first independent poll published since the state election was called. 
 
The EMRS poll published on Thursday puts Liberal support at 50 per cent to Labor's 23 and the Greens' 17 when undecided voters are excluded.

With the 23 per cent yet to make up their minds, Premier Lara Giddings' government polls just 16 per cent to the Liberals' 39 and Greens' 14.

Opposition leader Will Hodgman is preferred premier with 48 per cent, while Ms Giddings is polling just 21 and Greens leader Nick McKim 13.

The poll is the first since Ms Giddings announced her party's power-sharing arrangement with the Greens was over.

But it was taken before the premier, who is also treasurer, announced a $450 million budget blowout over the next four years.

It came as Ms Giddings and Mr Hodgman clashed in a feisty business lunch debate in Hobart.

The premier continued her tactic of linking federal government decisions to the election, slamming an admission by NBN boss Ziggy Switkowski that copper wire could be used in the state ahead of fibre.

"How backward thinking can you be when you know our future is a global future?" Ms Giddings said.

Mr Hodgman accused Ms Giddings of "grandstanding" on the issue, saying he had gone directly to communications minister Malcolm Turnbull.

"It's a federal project but I'll argue strongly our preferred position is fibre to the home," Mr Hodgman said.

"I don't resile from that."

Excluded from the debate, the Greens have described the major party debates as "boring".

But they were taking some solace from the polling.

"On this poll, we are basically level-pegging with Labor with just four weeks to go," Mr McKim said.

The Palmer United Party is polling five per cent despite founder Clive Palmer's recent claim his state leader Kevin Morgan would be premier.

The state government at least received some good news on Thursday with unemployment staying steady at 7.6 per cent.
