Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. Sources are mostly related to his unsuccessful candidacies for political office. Kurykh (talk) 08:26, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment These three sources:

certainly constitute in depth coverage. Whether or not they push this article towards WP:NPOL or WP:GNG is another question. Triptothecottage (talk) 09:34, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. Unelected candidates for office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates — and three pieces of campaign coverage in the local media is not enough to confer a WP:GNG pass. Every candidate for any political office could always show three pieces of local campaign coverage in the local media, so that falls under WP:ROUTINE and does not constitute evidence that he's more notable than the norm for an unelected candidate.

 * Delete Those three sources do not constitute in-depth coverage. They are trivial and routine coverage of a minor political figure. AusLondonder (talk) 15:32, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
