Fails WP:BIO. I'm in favor of including major-party nominees for U.S. Senate who lose the general election. But losing a primary is different. In general, candidates who lose primaries are not inherently notable. Thabault falls under that category. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 21:53, 29 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete (or merge?) I'd like to find a citation that's not a broken link, and then perhaps a short phrase about him at United States Senate election in Vermont, 2006 after his name would make sense. Other than that, I don't see a need for keeping a stand-alone article for someone only on the basis of their having listed themselves on a Senate Primary. -Miskaton (talk) 22:06, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete. Minor candidate with no indication of notability. If the primary were worth an article, he'd barely merit a one-sentence mention. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 23:27, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
