Foreign Minister Marise Payne and Senate Jim Molan have been chosen to fill the first and third spots on the coalition's NSW Senate ticket for the coming election.
The decision by the Liberals on Saturday means veteran NSW Liberal senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells, who also contested the preselection, will not get a winnable spot on the ticket.
Former NSW state director of the Nationals Ross Cadell will take the second spot on the ticket.
The Liberal preselection was also contested by lawyer and president of the NSW Liberal Women's Council, Cr Mary-Lou Jarvis.
The party said in a statement the Senate team would "continue to fight for families and small businesses across New South Wales, and will ensure that our community benefits from the Morrison government's COVID recovery plan with a stronger economy and a more secure nation".
Senator Fierravanti-Wells started her upper house career filling a casual vacancy in 2005.
She held parliamentary secretary and junior ministry portfolios from 2013 to 2016 and in early 2016 was made Minister for International Development and the Pacific.
