 * Delete. A person does not get a Wikipedia article just for being a candidate in a legislative election — if you cannot show and reliably source credible evidence that she already qualified for a Wikipedia article for some other reason independent of her candidacy, then she has to win the election, not just run in it, to get a Wikipedia article because election.

 * Merge. Well, some candidates, especially the ones who run more than once (like Sara Townsend), can probably get an article. But this one doesn't seem to have enough media coverage yet to merit her own article, so I say, merge to Virginia's 31st House of Delegates district election, 2017 (assuming that article doesn't get deleted too).

 * Strong delete candidates for state legislature are just plain not notable. Only if there is some other claim to notability could they be considered. Even US congress candidates are rarely indepdently notable, but state legislature candidates even more so. Especially 6 months before the election.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:32, 7 April 2017 (UTC)
