 * Keep Following up, here - subject seems perfectly notable to me and clearly passes WP:GNG. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 15:29, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete no notable sources found, seems to be mid-level local politician and lawyer. Oaktree b (talk) 17:01, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep, New York City is an extremely large an important city, to the extent that its City Councillors, and especially its Borough Presidents, are considered to pass WP:NPOL. In any case, a cursory search of newspapers.com finds plenty of non-routine coverage; take this in The Los Angeles Times, this in the New York Daily News along with tons of other coverage, this book extensively covers his re-election campaign in 1985 in the context of a challenge by José E. Serrano, and this was from an extremely brief search. Devonian Wombat (talk) 02:26, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep: A New York City Councilor is almost always going to be notable, and newspapers.com backs this up, with a plethora of sources providing WP:SIGCOV. WP:OUTCOMES tends to be misused here, but it exists for this particular reason. Curbon7 (talk) 12:05, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep notable Andrevan @ 21:06, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep per Devonian Wombat and Curbon7. A solid WP:GNG pass. Sal2100 (talk) 21:23, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep WP:POLOUTCOMES: "Municipal officers: City councillors and other major municipal officers are not automatically notable. But precedent has tended to favor keeping members of the main citywide government of internationally famous metropolitan areas such as Toronto, Chicago, Tokyo, or London." One more for precedent.
