Delete - After cleaning up the POV on the article and looking for sources, I don't think this person meets
WP:POLITICIAN or
WP:BIO.

Why do you
censor comments about a mayor who is using your media as a free ad instead of simply deleting it as suggested? Elections have finite time frames and every day he gets your unabashed support is un-American! Either allow comments about his failed mayorship, or take the topic totally down. If you do not, I will file a complaint with the election board regarding your campaign ad. —Preceding

Delete - This article is a blatant attempt to get free campaign advertising. The links all point to the current re-election campaign.

I disagree with your analysis that the article is blatant advertising. It's pretty simple with minimal content. It doesn't even mention that he's running for re-election. It certainly is not true that all the links point to his campaign. One of the sources is a local news article about all the candidates. The other one uses his campaign website to verify biographical information. In addition, I don't believe the sourcing violates
WP:RS. The issue here is that subject fails to meet Wikipedia's
notability guidelines, and most likely the article will be deleted in a couple of days.

Delete and redirect to
Stillwater, Minnesota - per nom, is a non-notable politician whose article fails both
WP:POLITICIAN or
WP:BIO; however, it is a viable search term, and should redirect to the article about the town/city. ---
