Political Career
Hulme entered State parliament on a recount in February 2009 after Paula Wriedt resigned due to ill health. He received 620 primary votes at the 2006 State Election,[4] finishing 11th in a field of 18,[5] but received 8,097 out of 10,660 or 78.0% of votes in the recount.[6] He was defeated in 2010.
Hulme spoke strongly in support of the Tasmanian forest industry and the Regional Forest Agreement at the Timber Communities Australia (TCA) state conference, 4 July 2009. In his speech, he strongly criticised Bob Brown, The Wilderness Society and the Greens. He also said he became a TCA member.[7]
