RADIO NEW ZEALAND: Former Labour Party finance minister Sir Roger Douglas is in line for a possible return to Parliament after securing third position on the ACT Party list.
Party leader Rodney Hide and Heather Roy are in the top two slots.
Sir Roger co-founded ACT, but has never represented it in Parliament - having retired as a Labour MP in 1990.
On current polling, ACT will struggle to return to Parliament with more than one or two MPs, assuming Mr Hide retains his Epsom electorate.
But Mr Hide says ACT will campaign hard for the party vote.
Anti-Electoral Finance Act campaigner John Boscawen is number four on the ACT list, while the fifth slot is being held open at this stage.
The party's top 10 list is:
Mr Hide, Mr Roy, Sir Roger, Mr Boscawen, number five to be advised, Hilary Calvert, Peter Tashkoff, John Ormond, Colin du Plessis and Shawn Tan.
