Minimally sourced WP:BLP of a person notable only as a non-winning candidate for office. While there was once a time when being a non-winning candidate for the leadership of a political party was accepted as sufficient notability under WP:NPOL, that is no longer the case -- a person no longer qualifies for a standalone article on that basis if they don't have any other strong claim of notability (such as actually holding another political office) alongside that. And since the only source here is a single glancing namecheck of his existence in a transcript of a legislative debate, WP:GNG has not been met either. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 05:31, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
