WP:BLP of a county supervisor, written extremely like a campaign brochure (my new worst thing ever: politicians whose articles give the names of their pets in the family section) and parked on abysmal sourcing. Almost everything here is a primary source, and a lot of them are deadlinked at that — and the closest thing to a reliable source is a single PBS Newshour piece (reduplicated as sources #4 and #7 for no apparent reason) in which he gets passingly namechecked as a soundbite provider in a report where he is not the subject. Actually, forget the dog and the cat: new even-worse thing ever, this actually tries to get away with sourcing to an internet talk radio stream in ref #16 (and not to any archive of that stream's content by which we can verify what was said, either, but just to the fresh live stream.) All of which means that nothing here is substantive enough, or sourced well enough, to make him eligible for an article under WP:NPOL #3. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 03:51, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
