Poorly sourced
WP:AUTOBIO of a person notable primarily as a non-winning candidate in a future election, and as a member of the board of directors of a non-notable local musicians' organization. Neither of these are notability claims that get a person into Wikipedia, however -- unless you can demonstrate that they already qualified for a Wikipedia article for some other reason independent of the election campaign itself a candidate has to win the election, not just run in it, to get a Wikipedia article on that basis, and serving on an organizational board of directors is not an automatic notability freebie either. But two of the four sources present here are
primary sources, and the two that represent actual media coverage are purely
routine coverage of the type that any candidate for office, and any local musician, could always show. There would have to be a lot more media coverage than this for her to get past
WP:GNG, and even if and when she does pass GNG she still won't get to write the article herself.

Delete per nom. As far as politics go, as Bearcat has noted, it's just routine coverage: one article in a local newspaper. As a musician, she's apparently better known for ruffling feathers in the Alaska blues community, according to the Anchorage Press free weekly newspaper.
[1] As for being CEO of Dynamics Intelligence Inc., it's listed as a
startup.

delete Just running for office doesn't make someone notable and my google search didn't find enough to meet the GNG. The article's sources also fail to prove notability.
