Party lists in the 2014 New Zealand general election

The 2014 New Zealand general election, which was held on 20 September 2014, saw the election of 121 candidates — 71 from electorates, 1 overhang, and the remaining 49 from ranked party lists. This page lists candidates by party, including their ranking by party list where applicable.

Within each section, parties are ordered according to their last election result. Where a ranked party list has not been published, or does not cover all announced candidates, candidates are displayed in alphabetical order.

National Party
The New Zealand National Party released its party list on 27 July 2014. It has also named candidates for every electorate. One current MP, Claudette Hauiti, was initially announced as the party's candidate for Kelston, but subsequently decided to leave politics. The party list was altered to elevate her replacement, Christopher Penk, from his initial 75th ranking.

Labour Party
The New Zealand Labour Party released its ranked party list and named its electorate candidates prior to the close of nominations.

In March 2014, the Green Party released an "initial draft" of their party list, intended for internal party consultation and voting, which ranked forty-one candidates out of a larger candidate pool. A party list of thirty-nine people was revealed on 25 May. The twelfth-ranked candidate, incumbent MP Holly Walker, subsequently withdrew from the list for family reasons, causing other candidates to move up one place. The party's final list ranks fifty-nine people, with those not previously included being ranked alphabetically.
