Non-notable failed candidate, running again, still not notable in his own right. Orange Mike &#x007C;  Talk  15:38, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the election in which he's running, as per WP:POLITICIAN. This gentleman still doesn't meet WP:POLITICIAN; I looked at the references and found that they were very localized (the Washington Post link is a blog post from a blog devoted to his state's politics and has little information).  Ubelowme (talk) 15:46, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to a neutral article about the current race he's a candidate in, that describes all the candidates. At this time, he fails WP:POLITICIAN in terms of a biographical article devoted to him.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  15:55, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect- To United States House of Representatives elections in Virginia, 2012, the race in question. Dru of Id (talk) 18:10, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect as per above comments and as per previous AfD on this topic. He shouldn't have an article about him until he is notable outside of routine election coverage. The article that was resurrected in November 2011 is sustantially the same as the one that was redirected in February 2011, indicating not much has changed. Sionk (talk) 20:43, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
