WP:BLP, resting entirely on a single namecheck of his existence in a news blurb about the election of his successor rather than any actual coverage of him, of a person notable only as the mayor of a small town with a population of just 17K. And furthermore, the entire article quite literally consists of a single sentence asserting his existence, and contains no other content of substance. This is not adequate to satisfy WP:NPOL #3 — a mayor has to serve in a city considerably larger than this, or be well-sourced and substantive enough to satisfy WP:GNG, to become eligible for an article on here.
