 * Keep notability weakly meets WP:BIO criteria, could be stronger if refs are added. Cincinnati is a major city ("Generally speaking, mayors are likely to meet this criterion, as are members of the main citywide government or council of a major metropolitan city.") and his election creating the first Democratic majority in 40 years is significant ("The topic of an article should be notable, or 'worthy of notice'; that is, 'significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded.'" ). twirligigLeave one! &#8900; Check me out! 19:12, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. I'm not sure that his local offices establish notability, but someone who narrowly lost an election for Mayor of a major city is surely notable for that alone. There should be more source citations, though. Kestenbaum (talk) 21:31, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete It may meet notability requirements, but does it really? If we were to put every councilperson of the top 50 cities in the United States, that's an additional 2500 articles. Is this necessary? I really don't think a every councilman of major cities should be considered encyclopedic. Quod erat demonstrandum 3.14159 (talk) 05:33, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. County commissioners in large urban counties are almost certainly notable figures. - Eureka Lott 17:08, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
