The Left in the Church of Sweden (
Church Assembly elections. The party only received 1.7% of the vote, and there was a large deal of dissatisfaction within the party concerning one of the assembly members elected, a priest who viewed sex outside of marriage and homosexual relations as "incompatible with his Christian views".[1][2]
Ahead of the
2005 elections, the Left Party decided not to run. Instead, ViSK was formed by a group of individual party members who wanted to run.[3]
The Left Party did not give any financial support to the electoral campaign of ViSK.
ViSK presented lists in five dioceses, and got 1.1% of the vote and three assembly members elected to the Church Assembly.
