Green Party candidates Chloe Swarbrick, Jack McDonald and farmer John Hart are the big winners in a draft party list compiled by the party's delegates.

The list largely protects sitting MPs - although David Clendon has dropped to 16th.

There are big promotions for Marama Davidson and transport and health spokeswoman Julie Anne-Genter - who has risen to third place just below the co-leaders.

Newcomers Chloe Swarbrick and Golriz Ghahraman rank within the party's top 15 candidates and within reach of Parliament.

John Hart a Wairarapa farmer who has stood for the party before, has also been elevated into the top 15.

Another high-profile candidate, Hayley Holt, is well down in the rankings at 29 and almost certain to miss out on election if her ranking does not change in the final list.

The rankings are based on votes by party delegates and are subject to change.
