WP:BLP of a person notable primarily as a candidate in a party primary for a future election. As always, this is not a claim of notability that gets a person into Wikipedia in and of itself — if you cannot make and properly source a credible claim that he was already eligible for a Wikipedia article for some other reason before he became a candidate, then he does not become notable enough for a Wikipedia article until he wins the election. This article, however, fails to properly demonstrate that he had preexisting notability as a businessman: his business career is sourced entirely to mentions of it by way of background information in coverage of the candidacy, which is not how you get a person over our inclusion rules for businesspeople either. Wikipedia is not a public relations platform on which political candidates are entitled to maintain campaign brochures. Delete, without prejudice against recreation in November if he wins the Senate seat. Bearcat (talk) 19:16, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Redirect to United States Senate election in Florida, 2016 where all the candidates can be described in a neutral fashion. As it is, this article is more like a campaign brochure than an encyclopedia article. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  22:52, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Redirect to United States Senate election in Florida, 2016 as suggested above. Per nom., not yet notable enough for his own article (as he will be if he wins the election).--Newbreeder (talk) 21:42, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
