According to the Mercury and the Examiner, Premier Lennon will call an election for Saturday the 18th of March 2006. Apparently the Tasmanian Cabinet will be meeting this morning (and not next Monday as usual). Political pundits have seized on this fact as evidence for an early election.

An 18 March 2006 election for Tasmania would coincide with the South Australia election. Green and Bowe have pages on the South Australian election.
