Unelected candidates for office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates — if you cannot make a credible and properly sourced claim that he was already notable enough for an article before becoming a candidate, then he has to win the seat rather than just run for it. But no strong claim of preexisting notability has been shown here, and too much of the sourcing is either
primary (his own social networking profiles, press releases on the city's website) or not actually about him at all (the entire history of the entire Clan Strachan). Delete.

Delete as per Valenciano and Bearcat above: A person running for, not yet elected, to office, and the office is a city council anyway, so nothing here that would meet
WP:POLITICIAN. No evidence of significant third-party literature specifically about this person, so no
WP:GNG either. --
