 * Keep This candidate is challenging well known Texas Senator John Cornyn, just like Ted Cruz challenged David Dewhurst in the 2012 US Senate Race in Texas. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lvyoral (talk • contribs) 03:02, 17 November 2013 (UTC)  — Lvyoral (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Not a valid reason to keep. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:05, 21 November 2013 (UTC)


 * There ought to be some information, based on reliable sources, which suggests that Stovall is well known in Texas. There is no such information in the article right now. Ratemonth (talk) 03:29, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to United States Senate election in Texas, 2014. Appropriate and relevant information about the candidate can be placed here. A redirect to a page about the election is an appropriate outcome for candidates for national office. WP:POLOUTCOMES. Enos733 (talk) 06:56, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep It is important for this candidate to be publicized as Ted Cruz and David Dewhurst were during the 2012 election. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WyattCS (talk • contribs) 01:40, 21 November 2013 (UTC)  — WyattCS (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Not a valid reason to keep. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:05, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
 * In addition, the comparison is not apt, since David Dewhurst was Lt. Governor of Texas at the time of the race and Ted Cruz was previously the Solicitor General of Texas. Both candidates met the requirements of WP:GNG before the election. Enos733 (talk) 06:09, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, that too. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:41, 22 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Redirect. Candidate with no other notability. Publicising political candidates is not Wikipedia's remit. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:28, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
