Adam Bandt may be staring down the barrel of defeat but the Greens leader isn't entertaining the thought of losing his seat or party control.

The Greens are ahead in the Queensland seat of Ryan but have lost nearby Brisbane and Griffith after their primary vote fell by about 0.4 per cent across the country.
