Article about an as yet unelected candidate in the New York City Council elections, 2013, which is sourced entirely to coverage of her campaign. As per WP:POLITICIAN, merely being a candidate is not a sufficient claim of notability to merit a Wikipedia article by itself, but the article makes no substantive or properly sourced claim that she's notable for anything else. As always, she can have an article if she wins on election day, but she is not entitled to use Wikipedia as a campaign tool in the meantime. Delete, without prejudice against recreation if she wins.

 * Speedy redirect to New York City Council elections, 2013 per the precedent set by Articles for deletion/Cathy Guerriero. The associated issues have been hashed out and discussed in detail. Unless they are otherwise notable for something other than their council run, candidates should be redirected to the article for the election for which they are a candidate. In this case, New York City Council elections, 2013. Stalwart 111  04:10, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
