Non notable candidate who never held office, fails WP:NPOL and doesn't meet GNG either. Praxidicae (talk) 18:22, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - I originally BLP-prodded it because I missed some cited sources, but yeah, it fails WP:NBIO. It's pretty much attempting to claim notability from one event. Kirbanzo (userpage - talk - contribs) 18:23, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't even call that a claim. Praxidicae (talk) 18:36, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
 * It's attempting to claim it via that. Never said it is an actual claim. Kirbanzo (userpage - talk - contribs) 18:40, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Delete. Not notable. Kablammo (talk) 22:57, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. As always, people do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they did not win — the notability test at NPOL is winning the election and thus holding office, not just getting your name onto a ballot. To qualify for an article, rather, he would have to be demonstrable as either (a) having preexisting notability for other reasons that would have already gotten him an article anyway (e.g. Cynthia Nixon), or (b) having received so much more media coverage for his campaign than other candidates also got that he would have a credible claim to his candidacy being special (e.g. Christine O'Donnell). This demonstrates neither of those things, however. Bearcat (talk) 15:32, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
