Promotional article written about an independent candidate in an
upcoming gubernatorial election. Subject appears to be notable for
only one event as the only sources in the article that are not from McCormick's business or campaign websites are about his announcement for Governor.

WP:POLITICIAN says: "In the case of candidates for political office who do not meet this guideline, the general rule is to redirect to an appropriate page covering the election or political office sought in lieu of deletion. Relevant material from the biographical article can be merged into the election or political office page if appropriate." --

This article is both fair and unbiased. Mr. McCormick is a very well known businessman and current gubernatorial candidate from Massachusetts. Mr McCormick has an extremely professional resume including his well known lacrosse and business career. Thank you. — Preceding

Keep per very substantial coverage in reliable independent sources. In addition to being a candidate for governor he was a successful businessman and collegiate athlete.
