KEY POINTS:
National may lose one of its new MPs today and Labour and the Greens could each pick up another seat.
The results of more than 200,000 special votes will be revealed this afternoon.
Special votes are cast by people living overseas, or voters who are outside their electorate on polling day.
Traditionally, the Greens do well from special votes and their eight MPs could become nine with law lecturer Kennedy Graham waiting in the wings.
That result would make new National MP Cam Calder a possible casualty given his place on the party list, while Labour's former minister Damien O'Connor could see himself back in Parliament.
