Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. Sourced entirely by primary/non-reliable sources, and routine run-of-the-mill campaign coverage. My WP:BEFORE search across multiple search engines produced no reliably-sourced significant coverage as needed to satisfy the notability guidelines. Sal2100 (talk) 16:12, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete: Non-notable minor party functionary. A search for sources, including on newspapers.com, only revealed a few routine/typical election sources providing no WP:SIGCOV of the subject. A possible WP:ATD redirect could be 2006 Illinois gubernatorial election, but doubtful of the use since he was only a write-in candidate who netted just 0.5% of the vote.

 * Delete. Neither party functionaries nor unelected political candidates are "inherently" notable on those grounds per se — the notability test would require significant reliable source coverage about him to establish a reason why he could be credibly seen as a special case of significantly greater notability than the norm for either of those levels of significance. But this depends on a mixture of primary sources, which aren't support for notability at all, and run of the mill campaign coverage of a type and depth that every candidate in every election can always show, which aren't enough to make him more special than everybody else.

 * Delete: Agree with nominator; fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOL. All coverage of the subject seems to be WP:ROUTINE. User:Let'srun 22:03, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
