Poorly sourced WP:BLP of a mayor, in a city not large enough (30K) to confer an automatic presumption of notability on its mayors under WP:POLOUTCOMES. This is essentially written and structured as a campaign brochure, not an encyclopedia article, and it's parked entirely on primary sources: the city's website, his own website, and a campaign statement in the "campaign statements of the candidates" section of the local community newsweekly. This is not the kind of reliable source coverage it takes to satisfy WP:GNG. Delete. Bearcat ( talk) 20:21, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

- Delete fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG, the sources in the article are the subject's personal site, his office's site and an election campaign piece in a local newspaper Kraxler ( talk) 01:51, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
