This is a classic has-been, also-ran, wanna-be politician. His position on the Port Authority is not so significant that he's notable per WP:POLITICIAN. According to the New York State Elections website, Blakeman came in third in his most recent primary last month. In fact, as may be seen on page 7 of that pdf, he came in dead last in 58 counties, only coming in second in four counties out of 62. He failed to win even a single county, and he got less than 25 % of the vote. In 1998, he got more votes, as may be seen here, but was defeated by greater than a two-to-one margin for an obscure post. He never got on the ballot for Mayor of New York City. Just getting nominated or running for office is not sufiicient for notability. He's now run three times for three different offices, each time getting crushed. If he had done anything else that ranked for WP:GNG, I do not see anything. Several Google searches fail to find any reference other than the "also ran" or "third party" candidacy notice for the record. There is some evidence that persons with a conflict of interest have edited the article. In effect, this article acts as a resume page. He is on the ballot on November 2nd on a very minor line. We are not a free webhost for failed politicians. Delete. Bearian ( talk) 20:13, 27 October 2010 (UTC) reply
City councillors and other major municipal officers are not automatically notable, although precedent has tended to favour keeping members of the main citywide government of internationally famous metropolitan areas such as Toronto, Chicago, Tokyo or London. Note, however, that this does not necessarily include borough councillors.
