Biography of a person notable only as a non-winning candidate for political office. While there was once a time when unsuccessful candidates in
leadership conventions were accepted as notable on the grounds that they added valuable context to the convention coverage, that's no longer accepted as a claim of notability in its own right if you can't get him over any other inclusion criterion besides that fact alone — but nothing else here does that, and with just one incomplete citation for sourcing he doesn't get a
WP:GNG pass either. Delete.

Delete loosing the political race he lost does not make a person notable.

Delete: On the given content, the subject appears well short of
WP:POLITICIAN or broader
WP:BIO criteria, nor are my searches locating anything better.
