Delete or merge with
Dick Gephardt article -- thoroughly non-notable; does not derive notability by connection to notable relative (in this case her father).

Delete right now she is the daughter of a notable person. I don't think switching parties:) makes her notable. Unless she is active in some sort of movement for those coming out or notable in some other way she fails all notability standards.--

Keep I've worked on the article and added references. Gephardt was in the news over time and a significant number of articles are about her in particular, so her notability is not just inherited. She was the first LGBT member to be prominently featured in a US political campaign as referenced in the article. Passes GNG.

Keep Concur with
Megalibrarygirl. Notability is not temporary. Once she became the subject of stories calling her a pioneer for other LGBT family members of politicians to be out, and was featured in a documentary, her notability separated from her father's. Meets GNG, reliable sources, over time, with significant coverage of subject.

Delete. Notability not substantiated by sources. My attention was drawn to this AfD by its posting on the WiR talk page.

Keep: Multiple magazine cover stories, documentary, clearly meets GNG independent of her family.
