Erm, not really. Saying you would vote for them is a bit like saying you would vote for ALDE or EPP. It's not a party, more a federation of parties that stood a few joint lists in 2011.

In any case, they are basically dead now; and even in 2011, as far as anyone who voted for them concerned, they were voting for whichever local far left party (POP/PST or SolidaritéS) they normally vote for.

Sometimes the far left do stand joint lists, but not under the banner of "Alternative Left" (or "La Gauche" - seeing as the far left is almost entirely a French Swiss phenomena; the only people who vote for the far left in German Switzerland are 19 year wannabe anarchists from Horgen). The Alternative Liste are doing fairly well in places like Zurich, but that's a single party these days, not an umbrella entity.

In any case, the Swiss far left are a waste of time, seeing as they are so sectarian it is almost a parody. And they have one member of parliament, who votes to to the right of half the PS anyway.

2011: Social Democrats

I'm not going to go all the way through but my politics have changed somewhat since 2015. From 1919-1935 I would have backed the Conservative People's Party albeit being more on the Catholic labor-aligned wing. From about 1935-1943, the Social Democrats. From 1943 onward I would primarily support the Christian Democratic Party and its prior namesakes, perhaps with a vote for the Social Democrats thrown in there before the late 1960s.

There's also a possibility in any given election that I would vote for a smaller leftish Christian party like the Christian Social Party or the Evangelical People's Party of Switzerland (once they became more chill with Catholics). And if I lived in Obwalden, I'd likely cast my vote for the Christian Social Party of Obwalden.
