 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Latmer County, Colorado county commissioner who is one of a number of hopeful candidates for governor in the Colorado gubernatorial election, 2018. Does not meet WP:GNG or NPOLITICIAN. Coverage consists of announcement for candidacy and routine coverage of service on commission-- mostly quotes about actions of the commission and related issues. Coverage of candidacy is brief mentions in articles about other candidates as well and his campaign announcement. No in depth coverage as that needed for notability guidelines. Some removed content was mostly a mirror of campaign page. Dlohcierekim (talk) 04:22, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete Zero sourcing to indicate notability. Fails WP:NPOL. AusLondonder (talk) 23:58, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. A person does not qualify for a Wikipedia article just for being an as yet non-winning candidate in a future primary, and being a district commissioner at the county level is not an WP:NPOL pass either. The nature of gubernatorial races is such that he likely will pass GNG if he wins the party's nomination and goes into the general election, because gubernatorial elections typically get much more widespread and nationalized coverage than individual legislative races do, so no prejudice against recreation if he wins the primary and goes into the general — but nothing here right now gets him an article today.
