WP:BLP, written like a prosified résumé rather than an encyclopedia article, about a person notable only as a registrar of deeds at the county level and chair of his county's local chapter of a political party. Neither of these are claims of notability that satisfy WP:NPOL -- a person has to hold office at the state level, not the county level, to be considered automatically notable for the fact of holding office per se -- but it's not sourced to anywhere near enough reliable source coverage about him to get him past NPOL #2, but to a mix of primary sources, purely routine local coverage of the local elections, and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things. Exactly none of this is any reason whatsoever why he would qualify for an encyclopedia article. Bearcat (talk) 04:25, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
