This individual fails WP:POLITICIAN and WP:GNG. I believe consensus on individuals such as Pentel has shifted since the first AfD. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:44, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete As an unsuccessful candidate, he fails WP:POLITICIAN. I agree with Muboshgu's  description of the current consensus on such articles. Cullen328 (talk) 19:56, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - Like with the first AfD, notable Green party activist and was a Minnesota governor candidate.  Easily passes WP:GNG - Minnesota Public Radio did a major in-depth piece on him here.  The Star Tribune also did a piece on him..  --Oakshade (talk) 21:23, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
