Pauline Hanson has failed in her bid to be elected to the upper house of the NSW Parliament.

Despite being well ahead on the primary votes, Ms Hanson was overtaken by Greens and Liberal-Nationals candidates when preferences were distributed today.

Ms Hanson stood as an independent candidate at the state election on March 26, having severed formal links with One Nation, the party she co-founded.

Advertisement: Story continues below She moved from Queensland to the NSW mid north coast last year and announced early last month she intended to run for an upper house seat.

As she entered the NSW Electoral Commission's western Sydney headquarters for the final count this morning she said she was ''not overly confident''.

The final two members of the upper house, formally known as the Legislative Council, are the Greens' Jeremy Buckingham and Sarah Johnston of the Liberal-Nationals Coalition.

The Coalition government has fallen short of a majority in the house, with 19 of its 42 seats.

Labor has 14 seats, the Greens five, the Christian Democrats two and the Shooters and Fishers party two.

This means the government will need the support of at least one of the minor parties if Labor opposes any legislation.
