The result was   redirect to  United States House of Representatives elections in New York, 2010. The previous AfD was no consensus, and opinion remains divided, & both views have support in policy--it is not really clear what to do about such conflicting guidelines; I doubt we'll resolve this by relisting, so I'm going for a compromise redirect; if there should be a little more material, it can be recreated.

Not notable. All sources are about him as a politician, but he fails WP:POLITICIAN as a failed candidate for office. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:44, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete As the nominator says, he fails WP:POLITICIAN.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  05:15, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep He has been the subject of coverage in multiple independent sources and passes WP:PEOPLE. Please see the previous AfD discussion for this article's suitability under WP:PEOPLE and WP:N. Eprose819 14:32, 30 August 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eprose819 (talk • contribs)
 * Delete None of the sources in the article cover him in any depth at all, they simply mention him in the context of reporting on an election campaign. Valenciano (talk) 14:45, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I could not find any coverage of him outside the context of the election - except for a mention in connection with a rezoning battle. He does not appear to have achieved notabity as a community activist or as a third-party candidate for congress. --MelanieN (talk) 21:41, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to United States House of Representatives elections in New York, 2010. He got about 7% of the vote in that election. -LtNOWIS (talk) 00:36, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
