The result was merge to United States Senate election in Hawaii, 2010. Beeblebrox ( talk) 00:28, 24 March 2010 (UTC) reply
The guy's a scuba instructor. Just because he's filed to run in the primary doesn't make him notable. If he wins the primary, against Senator Inouye, then he can have an article. I also have concerns of COI editing. Woogee ( talk) 19:38, 16 March 2010 (UTC) reply
The article was written in a non-biased tone, so I'm confused as to why you feel there may be a COI. Also, I would consider Andy Woerner to be notable the moment that he officially has been added as an official primary candidate, which he has been as you can see in the source that was listed. His notability is not his previous occupation, but his possible future one. Voters should have the most amount of accurate information about the candidates and as long as the information is unbiased and accurate, I see no reason to delete the article.

delete- I hate to say it, but in the USA Senators are generally for life. I wish primaries were meaningful for incumbants, but rarely are. I would suggest moving it back into user space. If there is any national attention, or if you actually win the primary, then certainly you would be notable. Now in the meanwhile help with Hawaii articles would be great. In fact, "Jack's Locker" might deserve an article, but the link on this page does not seem relevant to national political office. W Nowicki ( talk) 02:06, 17 March 2010 (UTC) reply
The only content that user:USSenateHI edited was incorrect dates for Senator Inouye's service in the Senate. The original writer mistakenly put that he had "held the seat since Hawaii became a State in 1959". While Senator Inouye served in the U.S. Congress starting in 1959, he did not begin the Senate until several years later as per Dan Inouye. Although I am indeed the candidate mentioned, I did not initially see the COI, as I was merely correcting a reference mistake made by another user. I now understand the potential COI of making any edits on a page about myself and am respectfully removing myself from this discussion.
