Independent MP Andrew Wilkie says he will support supply and confidence in the coalition government.

Mr Wilkie, who has been re-elected to his Tasmanian seat of Denison, said in a statement on Friday there was "no conceivable way" Labor would govern and the final result would be a minority or majority coalition government.

"I will continue to vote on parliamentary business on its merits, and consequently not support a vote against budget supply or confidence in the government unless clearly warranted, for example in a case of malfeasance," Mr Wilkie said.
