Delete. Biography of a person notable only as an unsuccessful candidate for office, which is sourced only to a single obituary in his hometown newspaper and to The Political Graveyard (which, regardless of any quibbles about whether it's a reliable source or not, is definitely not a source where inclusion confers automatic notability in and of itself.) There's simply not enough substance or enough sourcing here to make him notable. Bearcat (talk) 22:05, 12 October 2016 (UTC)

 * delete I looked for more sources and found which has a paragraph-length bio, but nothing in it seems to indicate to me anything that would pass notability.  has a photo if we end up keeping this. These do suggest the possibility there are better sources, so I'd be happy to be convinced - David Gerard (talk) 11:58, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete He was not even elected mayor of Luddington, that is how unnotable he was. Candidates for congress are not default notable, nor are delegates to a party's national convention.01:17, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - this is a very marginal case. I'm not sure if we've ever kept a DNC delegate on that alone. Bearian (talk) 01:24, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
