Republican running for election in November against the Democrat incumbent, but not elected to anything yet, nor notable per WP:POLITICIAN or WP:BIO, and no significant coverage online from WP:Reliable sources. I can't even find any local press coverage of his candidacy online. OnionRing (talk) 10:39, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete. Being an as-yet-unelected candidate for office does not get a person into Wikipedia in and of itself — as always, if you cannot make a credible and properly sourced case that he was already notable enough for an article for some other reason independent of his candidacy, then he has to win the election, not merely run in it, to attain notability on the basis of the election.

 * Delete unelected candidates for state legislatures are not notable. If he wins in Novembmer, La Croix will be notable, but he is not notable now.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:16, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete He can have an article if he wins in November. But I have rarely searched a candidate and found less press coverage.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:43, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
