Non-notable failed political candidate; does not pass WP:NPOL. A WP:BEFORE search returned only trivial and WP:ROUTINE election news, with no significant coverage, indicating the subject fails WP:GNG. Curbon7 (talk) 07:35, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete, while I can see coverage such as this and this is not trivial and seems to be independent and secondary, it also seems to more like WP:ROUTINE coverage in the lead up to an election which didn't amount to anything and which did not result in the candidate being further recognised. I can't see anything too recently which asserts notability for this individual, who does appear to fail WP:NPOL. Maybe in future, but for now at least I think WP:TOOSOON.

 * Delete - The coverage in existence is routine. Given that the candidate is unelected, they are not subject to sufficient significant coverage outside that which is routine to be considered notable. MaxnaCarta (talk) 09:15, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable, and the article is no longer maintained. Kablammo (talk) 12:45, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
