Unsuccessful political candidate who otherwise isn't notable. Meatsgains (talk) 02:01, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
 * The "White-collar criminal" in the lead is already a red flag per BLP, and most of the sources appear to be about that. Delete John M Wolfson (talk) 05:38, 24 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Strong delete what does it tell you when entire sections sit there empty? Trillfendi (talk) 15:29, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
 * It tells you that the editor was on a standard West Coast USA sleep schedule and added that section (there was never more than a single empty section) when they woke up in the morning. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 15:10, 26 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi, I created this page and I’m rather confused about the response. She is a convicted white collar criminal... So whats the BLP issue? There is significant coverage in both the local paper of record (The Hartford Courant) and the national paper of record (The New York Times), notability is well established by that.

 * Keep passes WP:GNG with multiple independent sources covering her.--TM 14:29, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Being a failed political candidate does not trump GNG. Specifically, our subject has received in-depth coverage prior to her failed political career - e.g. SI in 2001, Courant in 1996, or this book (snippet view) from 1998. Her somewhat unusual campaigns also received quite a bit of coverage (and that adds to notability, not detracts). Furthermore her campaign finance issues and subsequent conviction have lead to more coverage (possibly passing WP:NCRIME by itself) - most congressional campagins don't end with the candidate and a former governor jailed... See -, mention - in this book. Icewhiz (talk) 16:22, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
