I originally tagged with notability. May be speediable (per WP:CSD G7 as author does not object to deletion and the only third-party editing has been a link added. That being said, I thought AFD was appropriate given that he was a congressional candidate in 1992. Nevertheless, I feel this does not meet WP:BIO and there seems to be very little Google coverage (granted, he did run in the days where internet coverage would have been sparse).

 * Speedy Delete* If there's nothing on him from that age saved, that's pretty much WP:N in a nutshell, right? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SirFozzie (talk • contribs) 23:19, 21 September 2006 (UTC).

 * Keep What's the problem? He was a major party nominee for Congress, that's notable enough. It's source, not vanity, and not promotional. We're not paper. A Google test is not a great measure for a 1992 candidate; obviously there would be many online references to such a candidate today. I frankly wish we had more data like this. I just spent several days compiling data for research on Australian regional assembly elections. Some of the material I could only find on Wikipedia, saved me possibly days of effort. In what way does keeping this hurt Wikipedia? Derex 07:13, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment, please take a look at Wikipedia:Candidates and elections#Elections first, then individual candidates. ergot 15:37, 2 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete - I do not claim to know tons about US politics, but he lost right. He did not ever sit in as as a congressman.  His only notbility is that he lost an election; how many pages does that open up for creation for the US alone.--Gay Cdn  (talk) (email) (Contr.) 01:01, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, losing candidate and nothing else. Also since the argument for keep culminates in "it doesn't hurt Wikipedia". Punkmorten 09:23, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
