John D. Jacob
Failed attempt to be a candidate. Non-notable. Delete. BlueValour 02:26, 1 July 2006 (UTC) *Keep. That is just a proposed guideline. These discussions should be combined. All of these are going to just repeat the same debate, be the outcome of keep, delete, or whatever.  young  american (ahoy-hoy) 02:33, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete. Failed candidate in a congressional primary. Not notable. -Will Beback 03:10, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BIO, non-notable unsuccessful political candidate--TBC TaLk?!? 03:13, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Yet another failed candidate who fails WP:BIO. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 04:46, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Not quite strong, but definitely not "weak".  Jacob got some pretty wide press coverage on CNN and other national media.  Probably not so much because of anything about him personally as that the primary was treated as a "harbinger" of the mid-term Congressional elections, and of GWB's immigration position. 07:06, 1 July 2006 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by  Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters (talk • contribs)
 * Delete He sold me my house, and the roof leaks. WP:BIO Ste4k 10:54, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. He just lost the primary so is no longer a candidate, hence no longer needs an article.  KleenupKrew 11:20, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete unless made WP:V. Zos 16:55, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * weak delete though he recieved some press coverage, if he doesn't run again, this is just the bio of a Utah real estate developer. --Samael775 17:25, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
