The page revolves around "Everett Suffrage Club" and not for Ella Russell, no in-depth reliable references were found for her to establish the notability. Meeanaya (talk) 07:13, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep there are plenty of sources in the article to show notability. She wasn't just known for being the president of a suffrage group, but was known for running for office and her outspoken support of women's suffrage which received country-wide attention.

 * Keep per Megalibrarygirl. Disagree with nominator that the article is more about the club than Ella herself. She is definitely the main focus, and the sources backing it all up are solid. Kenmelken (talk) 17:35, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep in agreement with Megalibrarygirl, I am seeing the sources already in the article. Jooojay (talk) 22:11, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep In fairness to the nominator, I have substantially rewritten this article and added sources - at the time of nomination, there were only 3 sources relevant to the subject (and one about mayors of her town a hundred years later). The point is, though, that they WP:NEXIST - many on a subscription site, but some freely accessible. The 3 relevant sources that were already in the article are all from the 2000s, which surely suggests that someone who is noted for her actions of 100 previously is actually notable.

 * Delete unelected candidates for state senate are not notable. She fails any reasonable politician notability test. We can easily find sources on all politicians, but not all politicians are notable, and so there is no reason to have an article on her.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:07, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep well documented article on historic person.Strandvue (talk) 12:17, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. -TheseusHeLl (talk) 05:32, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Well sourced, historically notable.--Ipigott (talk) 07:59, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. This article is properly and fully sourced. It is a useful start point for any research of the suffragette movement or of this suffragette in particular. This sort of article is what WP needs - a useful source of information. The suffragette movement itself is notable, and this is an important part of it, worthy of an independent biography due to the amount of material here, and the contribution she made to the movement.
