Constitution Party of Alaska

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A non-notable state branch of an insignificant political party. Sources are biased and or primary and hugely fail WP:RS Recommend delete and redirect to Constitution Party (United States). Ad Orientem (talk) 17:28, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete/redirect There seems to be nothing notable by our criteria for this state party. The non-primary sources are fine, although they apply to the Constitution Party and are only in the article to describe this parent party. Dougweller (talk) 17:58, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete on the basis that this entity is not recognized (and has not been recognized) as a political party by the Alaska Division of Elections, nor has elected anyone to partisan office. Of the other parties found in Category:Political parties in Alaska, all of those parties have been recognized at one point in time, and all but the Green Party have elected candidates to partisan office in Alaska.  This party was founded in 2010, yet their presidential ticket was not on the Alaska ballot in 2012.  The party has only fielded one candidate thus far, the party's chair (who has also been active recently writing himself up on Wikipedia, BTW), who has only filed financial disclosure paperwork to run for governor in this year's election, but not a nominating petition to appear on the general election ballot (as is customary for candidates not affiliated with a recognized party).  Voter registration statistics for February 2014 shows a total of 161 voters registered as affiliated with the party, out of a total of 497,984 registered voters in Alaska.

 * Comment – There is no rationale given as to why this nomination is separate from the simultaneous blanket nomination for CP state party articles occurring at Articles for deletion/Constitution Party of Alabama. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 01:58, 13 February 2014 (UTC)
 * It was made before I realized how many state branch articles there were, and that the vast majority had no claim to notability. -Ad Orientem (talk) 03:26, 13 February 2014 (UTC)
