Independent MP Cathy McGowan has ruled out doing any deals that would allow the coalition or Labor to form minority government in a hung parliament.
The member for Indi in northeastern Victoria says she won't give up the opportunity to vote for legislation on merit.
"I'm not going to sell my vote and lose my ability to vote on issues as they impact on my community," Ms McGowan told ABC Radio on Tuesday.
Tony Windsor, who could return to parliament as an independent after the July 2 election, also ruled out any deals.
"If there was another hung parliament ... I wouldn't be signing any document with any side, I would remain independent," Mr Windsor told The Conversation.
Mr Windsor, along with other crossbenchers, guaranteed support for the Gillard minority government after the 2010 election produced a hung parliament.
