00:00On the countdown to decision day, the fate of the proposed stadium is front of mind for many.
00:09You don't buy what you can't afford.
00:13Division also heard across the road at the Liberal Party State Council.
00:18Sorry to disappoint people, but I firmly believe that we do not need a stadium.
00:24But most were in favour.
00:27This is going to be a transformational project for our state.
00:32Is it only about football? No, it's not.
00:35And emotions supporting the stadium was overwhelmingly carried.
00:39Against the eyes happen.
00:43Also on the agenda, support for a second Tasman Bridge.
00:47An emotional thank you to the government for phasing out funding for greyhound racing.
00:53It's not all roses when they come out of the industry.
00:56We've seen many, many horror stories. Many.
01:00And plans to address driver behaviour.
01:03Travelling on someone who does 90, they speed up to 110 on the double lanes.
01:06Now legally you can't go past.
01:08Get through the double lanes, they drop back to 90.
01:10Anyone experience that?
01:11Yes.
01:12Good.
01:13The council also voted to review the state's Hare-Clarke electoral system to see if it can be improved or even replaced, with concern it's confusing Tasmanians at the ballot box.
01:25While the recent state election returned another minority Liberal government, the council heard the only demographic in Tasmania the party won at the federal election was men over 55, which the Liberals are adamant can't happen again.
01:41Tomorrow will turn to federal issues, but the Premier won't be there, heading to Hobart for a pro-stadium rally.
