Most likely a case of WP:PROMO by and editor with a WP:COI on a subject who fails WP:NPOL. In a classic case of WP:REFBOMB very few, if any, of the sources actually contribute to WP:GNG. The lead paragraph and headshot are almost a dead giveaway that this article exists mostly for promotional purposes. GPL93 (talk) 21:03, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete; clearly promotional in intent. Nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable for the purposes of entitling her to have a Wikipedia article, but the referencing consists of a mix of primary sources and glancing namechecks of her existence in coverage of other things or people, not coverage that is substantively about her for the purposes of getting her over WP:GNG.

 * @Bearcat the "American Political Consultants category is chock full of these PR pieces. It's like a LinkedIn group. Best, GPL93 (talk) 19:15, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you, GPL93. Work to be done a-plenty! -The Gnome (talk) 12:40, 26 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete. This is a blatantly promotional text for a BLP about a non-Wikinotable subject who is yet another political operative. The sources cited, as well as those searched for, post nom, range from near-death weak to practically non-existent. E.g. The New York Times are grandly cited, yet, in their report (about voters now focusing less on cadidates' religion in the U.S.) there is one single drop of the subject, describing her as someone who "spent the last several years working to muster support for Mr. Romney among Christian conservatives." From there on it goes downhill as far as verifiable notability is concerned. -The Gnome (talk) 12:40, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
