Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a politician whose main claim of notability is serving in a county legislature. This is not a level of office where every person is automatically entitled to an article under WP:NPOL -- local political figures are permitted articles if they can be reliably sourced over WP:GNG, but are not entitled to an automatic presumption of notability the way state or federal legislators are. And for sourcing, all we have here is his primary source biography on the website of the county government he's a member of, with no evidence of coverage in independent sources shown at all.

 * Delete Can you imagine how many hundreds of thousands of local politicians Wikipedia would have from every country if their election alone was enough to secure a page?
