Abortion Opponents' List

The Abortion Opponents' List (Norwegian: Abortmotstandernes Liste) is a Norwegian political party led by priests Ludvig Nessa and Børre Knudsen, that was present in seven counties in the 2005 elections. In the 2009 elections, they only put up a list in one county, Østfold.

The party drew criticism when they declared they would not have any women in their list, reportedly to "spare them from mockery and hate in the media", while women could help with "practical [work]". The party received 1,934 votes, amounting to 0.07% of the votes cast, in the 2005 elections.
