Bio states he finished second in a local election, so fails WP:POL. I don't know if the other claim of "reviously the President of Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago" is enough to establish the notability of this person.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 09:47, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Non-notable politician with only local news coverage. Jmertel23 (talk) 15:53, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete a non-notable local politician. The fact that this article has lasted 10 years is a sign we need better article creation control.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:30, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Being president of a water conservation district could get him into Wikipedia if he could be shown to clear WP:GNG on the sources — but it isn't an "inherently" notable role that guarantees him an article just because he had a job, being an unsuccessful candidate for elected office isn't a notability freebie either, and this article is referenced nowhere close to well enough to get him over GNG.
