WP:BLP of a political campaign manager and non-winning election candidate, not well-sourced enough to clear WP:NPOL or WP:GNG. As always, neither of these are "inherently" notable things -- a campaign manager might be able to keep an article if he could be sourced well enough to clear GNG, but is not guaranteed an article just because he exists, and a person has to win the election, not just run in it, to clinch notability from an election -- but the referencing here, which consists of his initial candidacy announcement, the raw table of election results and a glancing namecheck of his existence in coverage of the MP he was campaign manager for, is not enough to make him notable.

 * Delete. Not notable. Doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:NPOL. No significant coverage from reliable sources. The person didn't win the election, and has never held a notable political office. —  Newslinger  talk   13:47, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
