Members of the Tasmanian House of Assembly, 1900–1903

Members of the Tasmanian House of Assembly, 19001903

This is a list of members of the Tasmanian House of Assembly between the 9 March 1900 election and the 2 April 1903 election.

Party affiliations were relatively loose during the period, although a Liberal grouping had formed over the 1890s around Sir Edward Braddon, the former Premier of Tasmania, and Andrew Inglis Clark. A separate grouping, generally described as Ministerial, supported Elliott Lewis, who was Premier for the entire parliamentary term. Only one Labor candidate ran in the election, in only the second contest entered by the party.

The 1900 election was the second to use a limited version of the Hare-Clark system within Hobart and Launceston, which were given 6 and 4 seats respectively, while still using first past the post single-member constituencies elsewhere in the state. Following this term, the system largely returned to its pre1897 state, but at the 1909 election, the entire State was redivided into five electorates using the Hare-Clark system.
