Multnomah County Republican Party

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

A county-level branch of a political party with no specific claim to notability seperate from the larger party organisation. Fails WP:ORGCRIT as lacking "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." Existing secondary sources do not focus on the county branch, rather covering election results by Republicans in Multnomah County. AusLondonder (talk) 12:52, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete - The only coverage beyond a passing mention in the last 5 years is about recalling their leader and splitting into 2 factions, which is hardly grounds for notability. It's unclear if the group even exists in any meaningful sense at this point. Jamedeus (talk) 09:05, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Note that notability is not temporary, even if the organization hardly exists nowadays. Has there been prior historical WP:SIGCOV of this affiliate? Curbon7 (talk) 08:25, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Not that I was able to find. Most mentions in secondary sources are along the lines of ", chair of the Multnomah County Republican Party" - but the person is being covered for other reasons and the party is not mentioned again. There are a few 2017 articles about hiring alt right groups for meeting security, and older stories about raffling an AR-15, but they tend to cover resulting outrage more than the party itself.

 * Comment - arguably, since Multnomah County, Oregon is the largest county by population in Oregon, this could be notable. I am not convinced it is, but it c could be notable. Bearian (talk) 19:09, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep per . There is a lot of coverage about this topic. We can use these sources to expand it:, , , , , , , , , , . 23.156.104.104 (talk) 05:08, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * These sources are mostly hyper-local and not overly helpful per WP:AUD. They almost all appear to relate to one or two controversial incidents as well, rather than about the organisation specifically which amounts to trivial coverage per WP:ORGTRIV: "coverage of purely local events, incidents, controversies" .

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete: Sure it has coverage, but is the regional entity of a larger political party notable? It's not even at the state level, it's a regional party. I don't think we have coverage down at this level to begin with. The Oregon Republican Party, maybe... Oaktree b (talk) 19:59, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete local branch of a political party not notable outside its locality. SportingFlyer  T · C  16:52, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
