The result was keep. ( non-admin closure) Peter Karlsen ( talk) 02:26, 2 November 2010 (UTC) reply
This is an article for a person who is a candidate for office but otherwise lacks notability. WP:POLITICIAN criteria #3 addresses this point specifically, that just being a nominee does not automatically confer notability. This article also fails the general notability guidelines; the refs in this article are to salary data, personal campaign websites, a general article about money going to gay candidates in the WBlade, a "where are they now?" blurb from a former membership, and so on. Minor, trivial coverage, absolutely routine for an unelected politician. Per the further explanation at WP:POLITICIAN on what to do with non-notables, a merger to the appropriate district page is a viable option to deletion. Tarc ( talk) 12:54, 26 October 2010 (UTC) reply
