WP:BLP of an unsuccessful candidate for political office, whose only discernible claim of notability is that after losing a primary he said something kind of loopy about the incumbent representative that he lost to. This just makes him a WP:BLP1E, but there's nowhere near enough reliable source coverage about any other aspect of his campaign to deem his candidacy more notable than the norm for other non-winning candidates -- apart from the robot weirdness, the only other sources here are the purely WP:ROUTINE results tables and political blog-analysis that any candidate for anything could always show. There's simply nothing here that constitutes a valid reason for a permanent encyclopedia article. Bearcat (talk) 02:55, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete WP:NPOL is not close to being met, and there's no other claim of notability. Clearly doesn't meet WP:FRINGEBLP. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 02:03, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete multiple discussions have over and over again demonstrated that candidates for congress are not default notable for such. We need to do better at preventing campaign promoting biographies from being made.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:54, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
