Previous AFD closed as no consensus, back when the primary was still running and this entry was billing him as the "front runner". Now that he's lost the primary, the lack of notabilty should be more clear. Hairhorn (talk) 03:06, 21 July 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:04, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete Notability is not inherited, he failed to get nominated by his party, and does not appear to satisfy WP:BIO. Edison (talk) 17:02, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - Politicians are inherently public figures. Nothing gained from the deletion, serviceable information would be lost. Carrite (talk) 20:38, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
 * All people who have ever run for public office are inherently notable? I'm not sure anyone buys that, and the notability criteria for politicians say pretty explicity otherwise. Hairhorn (talk) 22:02, 28 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete for failing WP:POLITICIAN.  elektrik SHOOS  19:16, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
