Subject is probably not notable per WP:NPOL, but more importantly this seems to be a soapbox piece, written by single-purpose account Mzxp125 (blocked in February by Vanjagenije for being a sock-puppet), exactly at the time when the subject entered an apparently lucrative House seat race. In other words: this thing is fishy, to say the least. bender235 (talk) 23:27, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete The article is clearly a professional puff piece. The original editor, and all of the early editors, are single-purpose accounts.  The remaining edits are people like me - toning down the extreme rhetoric, or purely stylistic edits.  If he wins, it will be a different situation.  Otherwise, he should be mentioned only as an "also ran" in any article about the election.  He's simply not otherwise noteworthy. John2510 (talk) 14:20, 7 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as the company is notable enough for an article but he is questionable himself and, at best, this would be best as a redirect to the company article. SwisterTwister   talk  05:50, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
