The previous AFD was closed as "keep" when this person was a candidate for the Republican nomination for US House in Alaska in 2010. The basis for the "keep" decision was apparently that Fisher would be notable if he won the primary. He didn't, and nothing else in the article indicates that he's notable per WP:BIO.

 * Merge to United States House of Representatives election in Alaska, 2010. Fails WP:POLITICIAN and there doesn't quite seem to be sufficient coverage for WP:BIO, but there is enough information to be worth preserving. Ray  Talk 16:06, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to United States House of Representatives election in Alaska, 2010 as directed by WP:POLOUTCOMES and User:RayAYang. Subject has received significant coverage in multiple non-primary reliable sources and thus passes WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO. That being said the coverage is primarily regarding his attempted to run for a political office, and thus also falls under WP:BLP1E; therefore, per WP:POLOUTCOMES a redirect is the proper course of action.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 17:30, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete/redirect Three-plus years in existence, and this article has flown so under the radar that there is not even a WP:BIOGRAPHY banner on its talk page, in spite of it being a biography article. There's probably just enough to be said about Fisher to place in the election article without overwhelming it. RadioKAOS  –&#32; Talk to me, Billy  18:06, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment I concur with merging/redirecting the article to the election page. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:44, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
