Allred was only ever a candidate for office, not a holder of office. He does not meet the notability criteria for politicians. The coverage of him in the sources does not rise above routine coverage. John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:48, 22 November 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Redirect to Idaho gubernatorial election, 2010, as is standard practice for unelected candidates running in notable political races. Cullen328   Let's discuss it  05:56, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the election per Cullen328. Being a losing candidate in an election is not grounds for an article in and of itself, unless the person can be shown to clear a Wikipedia inclusion criterion for some reason independent of the candidacy (e.g. already having preexisting notability for other reasons.) But that's not shown here. As a gubernatorial candidate rather than a legislative one, however, he is a plausible enough search term that his name should lead somewhere relevant rather than just redlinking.
