NATIONAL BUSINESS REVIEW: The Kiwi Party released its party list today, with "smacking" petition organiser Larry Baldock ranked at No 1.
Gordon Copeland, who founded the party with Mr Baldock, was second.
After the pair of former United Future MPs were Simon Kan, Frank Naea, and Simonne Dyer.
The Christian party hopes to gain 5 percent of the party vote and get MPs into Parliament.
Mr Copeland is presently in Parliament as an independent after quitting United Future over legislation removing the defence of reasonable force in child abuse cases. Opponents of the law say it bans smacking.
A referendum is to be held on the issue next year following the success of the petition.
