- Delete. Being a candidate in a future election is not in and of itself grounds for a Wikipedia article — if the person was not already notable enough for a Wikipedia article under some other criterion before becoming an election candidate, then with exceedingly rare exceptions they do not become notable enough for an article until they win the election. No prejudice against recreation on or after election day if he wins, but nothing here already entitles him to have an article today. Bearcat ( talk) 20:03, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
- Delete: No indication of notability sufficient to pass WP:BIO or WP:NPOL, failing both. I don't object to this moving to a draft, but both accounts that created this article appear to be single purpose accounts and might have a direct conflict of interest. Just something to watch for. -- Hammersoft ( talk) 21:07, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
