1 "Before" refers to standings at dissolution, and not to standings in the previous election. These numbers therefore reflect changes in the standings since the previous election as the result of by-elections and members crossing the floor.

One of the two independent candidates is a member of the federal Christian Heritage Party, while the other was formerly a candidate of the Libertarian Party.
