Poorly referenced WP:BLP of a person notable primarily as a former leader of a minor political party. While Wikipedia once had a rule that leaders of political parties were always "inherently" notable regardless of any sourceability problems, that's long since been deprecated -- now, a political party leader who was not personally a member of his or her party's elected legislative caucus for the purposes of passing WP:NPOL #1 is notable enough for a standalone article only if they can be shown to pass WP:GNG on their sourcing. But the only sources here are a raw table of election results from an election he didn't win and the party's own internal newsletter, neither of which constitute support for notability at all.
