Completely unsourced biography of a person whose only discernible claim of notability is having been a non-winning minor party candidate for political office. As always, this is not a claim of notability that gets a person into Wikipedia per
WP:NPOL -- if he didn't win the seat and thereby become an actual officeholder, then you have to be able to demonstrate and source some other reason why he would credibly be eligible to have an article independently of his status as a non-winning candidate. But with no sourcing shown here, he can't even claim to pass
WP:GNG. Delete.

Delete -- very clearly not notable by any stretch.

Delete Seems to me a speedy case. Obviously being a minor party candidate for the office of a state auditor is not notable in any way.

In company with 41% of Americans according to the poll on the front page of this morning's Times, I am charmed by old-timey Socialist candidates. So I looked Nevens up; he's certainly easy to find and validate as an active Socialist doing things old-time Socialist guys do, like running for office and losing, attending a socialist "parley" that "raps Congress" on the issues of the day, co-founding a workers cooperative in his hometown of Lynn, MA. No indication that he is is notable. Article created in March by SPA. Lord knows why. DeleteE.M.Gregory (
