 * According to guidelines on biographies, politicians at the local level are notable only if they are "Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage." Based on a Google search, I am not seeing press coverage. Please furnish links to such coverage, or the article is subject to speedy deletion. —C.Fred (talk) 00:13, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Not liking the cited, verifiable and accurate contents of a Wiki entry is not grounds for deletion. Further, this is a well known local politician. Doing a search on "Google News" turns up 86 entries for this person, many of them related to past criminal charges and a recall. A search on "Michael Sessions" on Google turns up 16,600 hits, most of them the party in question. By any stretch of the imagination, this person is in the public eye, is newsworthy, and deserves the entry. They have been on the David Letterman show, the Today show, CNN and countless other television shows. BTW, two other teenage mayors, of smaller towns, also have wiki entries, and they have far far less publicity then this person. Please reference Marion Barry's Wiki entry as well, as he has had his share of problems, yet still has a wiki Kirksmonkey 03:33, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
