Fails
WP:POLOUTCOMES. The deputy chair of a province/state-level political party is not inherently notable. There is no other claim to notability advanced in the article.

Delete. Being the youngest person (or the youngest African American person) to hold an otherwise non-notable office is not in and of itself an inclusion freebie that exempts a person from having to clear our regular notability standards. But being deputy chair of a political party is not an automatic
WP:NPOL pass, and the sourcing here isn't strong enough to get him over
WP:GNG in lieu: it's heavily dependent on
primary sources rather than reliable ones, all but one of the reliable ones represent local coverage that would merely be expected to exist, and the only one that's more than local isn't covering him in a noteworthy context. No prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can do much better than this, but if I were to actually strip all the ineligible sources that can't actually be used as support for notability, there wouldn't be enough left to make the article keepable.

Delete Interesting that he claims (no one else seems to care) things about his being super young, but we never even learn his age.
