2017 White Plains mayoral election

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:NEVENT. In particular, the event lacked significant impact over a wide region, domain, or widespread societal group and the scope of sources that covered it were of limited geographic scope that involved the routine local coverage of an election in a medium-sized municipality. Per WP:EVENTCRIT, this indicates that the event is likely non-notable. Since this event fails to meet the relevant notability guideline, the article should be deleted along the lines of WP:DEL-REASON#8. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 05:28, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete Elections in U.S. suburbs with population under 100,000 tend not to be notable. If you think it is, you need to have more info and sources than just the results data. Reywas92Talk 13:40, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete city elections in a city that is a smaller city in an area dominated by a much larger city (New York City just to the south has over 10 times the population of White Plains, There are 3 cities in Westchester County that have more people than White Plains (Yonkers, New Rochelle and Mount Vernon) Yonkers is over 3 times the size of White Plains. Westchester County has over 1 million people, White Plains 59,000, so less than 10% of the county population lives in White Plains, as mentioned New York City which borders Westchester County on the south has over 8 million people. This is also one town in Westchester County that has 95,000 people. So there is nothing to suggest an election in White Plains will be of regional interest.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:44, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
