 * Delete. You're correct that serving on a political party's internal organizational board is not an WP:NPOL pass in its own right — it's a thing that could still theoretically (but usually doesn't) get a person enough reliable source coverage to be kept on pure WP:GNG grounds, but not an automatic notability freebie that entitles a person to have a Wikipedia article in and of itself. But the references here are one primary source and one glancing namecheck of his existence as a giver of soundbite in an article whose subject is somebody else, which is not how you get a person over GNG.

 * Delete per nomination. Subject could, of course, have been independably notable himself, but all we have in sources is that he's the chair of a party that won 0.3% of the vote in the 2017 general election. I wonder who the table is. -The Gnome (talk) 09:22, 30 June 2018 (UTC)
