Non-notable politician. A member of a county board of supervisors, whose press coverage does not exceed the normal local coverage. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:17, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete: Someone offer him a capital letter for his last name, please. I assume he's not e.e. cummings. The article has local press references, but it also offers nebulous material (programs for housing the homeless. . . and these are of what sort? as one doubts that he's truly the only county politician to make proposals along those lines). A local pol. who isn't being discussed for statewide office yet. Hithladaeus (talk) 19:32, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete routine local press only, and no reason to expect anything more.  DGG ( talk ) 19:36, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep: Santa Clara County is the Capitol of Silicon Valley and home to 2 million residents which makes local government office a bigger deal than in some other areas. All 4 other Board of Supervisor members have been allowed to have pages, following the same Wikipedia guidelines. This page completes a missing piece.
 * See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. All four of those people make some other claim of notability, separate from the Santa Clara County council, that satisfies a different notability criterion. Their presence doesn't extend a notability freebie to other colleagues who can't make their own standalone claim to satisfying one of our inclusion rules on their own steam.

 * Delete. He clearly fails WP:POLITICIAN, which makes no allowance for members of county boards of supervisors regardless of the size of the county. That leaves WP:GNG, but all I could find in a search was routine local coverage. The references on the page consist of two listings at the county government site, one campaign website, one op-ed written BY him, and one interview by a nonprofit organization whose cause he sympathizes with. In other words not a single Independent Reliable Source. --MelanieN (talk) 16:48, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
