 * Delete - I came across this article while new page patrolling and was just considering how best to proceed with it when you nominated it for deletion. It currently has almost no reliable sources, is promotional in tone and reads like an election advertisement. He may well be notable so I had decided to reduce the article to a single sentence stub.

 * Delete. People are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they're running as candidates in elections they haven't won — he has to win the election to be deemed notable as a politician, and otherwise qualifies for an article only if he can be shown to have already gotten over a notability criterion for some other reason that would already have gotten him an article anyway. But this is not referenced anywhere close to well enough to demonstrate that — four of the seven references are YouTube clips or Facebook posts, which are never reliable sources for Wikipedia content under any circumstances, and one of the three that are real media is just a glancing namecheck of his existence as a giver of soundbite in an article about something else. So none of those sources contribute anything toward demonstrating his notability at all. Which leaves us with just the two sources about his declaration of his candidacy — but every candidate in every election can always show two sources about their announcement of their candidacy, so that is not enough to claim that having media coverage would exempt him from having to actually pass WP:NPOL by winning.
