Sources do not call her a politician
The HuffPo reference added implies that she would be a politician if she won. The specific quote is "Snow, of course, sees the significance of the history she’s making as a transgender politician". Of course, she did not make it, so she is not a politician. The WaPo reference actually makes the point that she is not a politician by saying that "we have Victoria Kolawoski, who might be considered the only politician on this list to win". In other words, Snow is not a politician. Sometimes the sky is blue (talk) 13:15, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
 * You are entirely wrong. In the first case it says she IS making history as a transgender politician, not that she WOULD be if she won. Your assertion that it "implies" she would only be a politician if she won is categorically wrong. Again, in the second case, it says the exact opposite of what you claim. By saying Victoria Kolawoski "might be considered the only politician on this list to win" clearly shows that all three are considered politicians regardless of whether they win or lose. Your argument holds no water and directly contradicts the sources as well as the majority of editor so far, so please refrain from restoring your edit until you can show that you have consensus.

 * Also, on this very talk page, it says "This page is about an active politician who is running for office or has recently run for office, is in office and campaigning for re-election, or is involved in some current political conflict or controversy." This talk page even identifies her as a politician, and while that doesn't mean much in terms of sourcing, it shows that consensus is clearly against you.
