• Delete No matter how badly this article tries to assert it, he's not a notable political figure for an article based on evidence. Trillfendi ( talk) 21:44, 2 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Delete. Being an unsuccessful election candidate is not an WP:NPOL pass, but this article makes no credible claim of preexisting notability for other reasons and offers no properly sourced evidence that his candidacy was a special notability case of significantly greater notability than most other candidacies. It's referenced 70 per cent to primary sources (genealogies and raw tables of election results); 20 per cent to dead links where the complete citation details were never properly provided, so we can't even retrieve them to see what they ever actually did or didn't say; and one short blurb about the plane crash he died in. None of this is how you source an unsuccessful election candidate as notable enough for Wikipedia. Bearcat ( talk) 15:00, 4 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Delete Most importantly does not pass WP:NPOL, but also WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NOTMEMORIAL applies here too.-- Rusf10 ( talk) 01:25, 5 April 2019 (UTC) reply
