Fails WP:POLITICIAN. Three-time unsuccessful candidate for office; only claim to notability is chairmanship of New Hampshire State Board of Education, but that claim is currently sourced to his own campaign website, and does not in and of itself establish notability. (The claim is enough to preclude a CSD nomination, however.) Almost all of the citations in the article are sources which are not independent of the subject (campaign site, company bio), blogs, or op/ed columns.
