 * Delete. State-level president of a political party isn't an "inherently" notable role under WP:NPOL, it's one where he would have to pass WP:GNG on his sourcing — but the sources here aren't genuine third party analytical coverage about him and his work, and instead it's sourced to a mix of short blurbs, press releases self-published by his own political party and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things, which is not the kind of sourcing it takes to make a person notable for this. And since absolutely anybody who participates in any event at all can always claim to be "included in the current ongoing events", just throwing those words around still isn't grounds for an encyclopedia article in the absence of better sourcing than this either.

 * Delete not notable per WP:NPOL. President of a political party on a state-level does not confer any notability.  &maltese; SunDawn &maltese;     (contact)   02:37, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
