Jacqui Lambie has retained her seat in the Senate following weeks of uncertainty, with the Australian Electoral Commission confirming Tasmania's upper house results on Tuesday.
The outspoken Senator has finished fifth in the polls following preference distribution.
Her party, the Jacquie Lambie Network, received 7.28 per cent of votes (5.28 per cent for the party above the line, 1.99 for Senator Lambie personally below the line), per the AEC's tally room as of Monday afternoon.
Senator Lambie had been in a tight race to retain her seat since election night on May 3.
Made official on Tuesday, the Palawa incumbent has beaten Labor's Bailey Falls and One Nation Party candidate Lee Hanson, daughter of party leader Pauline, to win one of the final two spots, with the Liberal Party's Richard Colbeck also retaining his seat.
The Labor Party's Carol Brown and Richard Dowling, Liberal Claire Chandler and the Greens' Nick McKim had earlier secured their seats in the Senate.
A "grateful" Senator Lambie laid out her priorities following confirmation of her re-election.
"I am very grateful that the Tasmanian people have given me the chance to fight for them for another six years. Representing Tasmania and bringing the voices and concerns of the people to Canberra, is what gets me out of bed in the morning!" she said on Tuesday afternoon.
"My focus is on the Tasmanian people, especially those doing it tough.
"Interest rates are coming down and that's good, but for many Tasmanian families it will barely touch the sides.
"I want to ensure the recommendations from the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide are implemented properly and that they make a real difference to the lives of veterans and their families.
"A big thank you to all of my supporters, everyone who put up signs, stood at pre-poll and gave me donations."
A former Australian Army corporal, Senator Lambie called for a Royal Commission in the Department of Veterans' Affairs amid what she described as "systemic failure to care for our veterans" during her first speech to Parliament. She later gave evidence.
Established in 2021, the Royal Commission's 2024 final report made 122 recommendations.
Last year, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Minister for Veterans' Affairs and Defence Personnel Matt Keogh credited Lambie with bringing the matter to light.
Senator Lambie was first elected to the Senate in 2013.
The AEC also announced Minister for Indigenous Australians Malarndirri McCarthy and Jacinta Nampijinpa Price have officially retained their seats as Senators for the Northern Territory.
