The order will be:

- Matthew Stadtmiller – Shooters, Fishers and Farmers
- Jim Saleam
- Charlie Sheahan – Country Labor
- Steph Cooke – The Nationals
Country Labor’s Charlie Sheahan and the National’s Steph Cooke say they are not concerned about possibility of donkey votes.
“It’s always nice to get the top poll but we haven’t got that so it means people are going to have to really think about their ballot papers and hopefully they always do,” Mr Sheahan said.
“It’s a massive honour and privilege to be able to stand… I’m not at all worried about the position that I’ve drawn on the ballot paper,” Ms Cooke said.
