WP:BLP of a local politician, not properly referenced as passing WP:NPOL #2. The notability claims here are that he was a county legislator and chief of staff to a town supervisor, which are not instant notability freebies -- but the references here are WP:ROUTINE local campaign coverage and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other people, not coverage that is substantively about him. For county or town level politicians, the notability test is not just the ability to verify that the person exists -- it requires a depth and range and volume of coverage that marks him out as much more special than most other county or town politicians, but that's not what these sources are doing.

 * Delete Article seems to have been written to bolster a political campaign that has ended in defeat, with the victor Edward P. Romaine himself not rising to the level of an article. Apparently, Beedenbender has since moved into the private sector. StonyBrook (talk) 10:15, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
