 * Delete. Unsuccessful candidates for office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates, but this offers nothing to suggest that he has preexisting notability for other reasons independent of being a candidate: it's referenced 75 per cent to raw tables of election results, and 25 per cent to a single newspaper endorsement, and literally cites zero sources suggesting that he ever got enough media coverage as "co-owner of Glass Doctor" to get over our notability standard for businesspeople in lieu of flunking the one for politicians.
