Pete Beauregard

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Subject does not mean WP:GNG or WP:POLITICIAN. He is an unsuccessful candidate for office. Literally the only coverage cited to Independent Reliable Sources is about his campaign for congress, where he was eliminated in the primary. A search did not find any additional coverage.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: The person is not mentioned at United_States_House_of_Representatives_elections_in_California,_2018, so I'm not sure whether a redirect is useful.
 * Redirect to article on the race he contested. —МандичкаYO 😜 05:43, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete The guy suspended his campaign six months before the primary election. To call him a candidate is even a stretch. At this point, he was just dabbling his toe in the water. A redirect isn’t even necessary for this.  TastyPoutine  talk (if you dare) 12:19, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:NPOL. SportingFlyer  talk  19:46, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per the relist comment, a redirect isn't helpful or useful here. The person is primarily an activist and a Congressional campaign that ended 11 months before the election is a bad redirect target, even if he were mentioned there. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 17:10, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being unsuccessful or withdrawn candidates in election primaries, but nothing else here is a strong notability claim. And there are no grounds for deeming him to pass GNG, either, as the sourcing is five-sixths his own primary source content about himself, and the one that's actually a reliable source is purely routine coverage of his campaign announcement in a local newspaper where every candidate's campaign announcement is simply expected to get exactly the same treatment — so it's not enough all by itself to deem his candidacy special.
