Non-elected candidate for the United States House of Representatives. I believe such politicians do not meet WP:BIO. Tizio 11:46, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, failed election candidates are generally not held to be notable. Lankiveil 12:10, 27 July 2007 (UTC).
 * Delete WP:BIO is pretty clear on politicians. Just having run is way below the requirements, thus fails WP:N. Pedro | Chat  12:15, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete - doesn't meet what's required in WP:BIO.  Lra drama 13:13, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, failed candidates who have no other claim to fame, so to speak, do not pass notability standards. ɑʀкʏɑɴ 15:21, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I continue to think that major party candidates in the US who have the party nomination for national legislature should be considered notable. I know this is not yet the practice, but I think it ought to be. DGG (talk) 16:08, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * You may be on to something there, but for what it's worth, Mr. Holly ran unopposed for the Democratic nomination. ɑʀкʏɑɴ 16:15, 27 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete, no indication that Mr. Holly is notable for anything other than being one party's sacrificial lamb in a noncompetitive district. NawlinWiki 16:43, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Oli Filth 17:16, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Oh well, he can always use his political experiences as the basis for a self-published book, and then we can delete him again. Qworty 19:04, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. The reason I tagged this article for delection was because the candidate's last name is actually spelled "Holley" Qqqqqq 23:39, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
