Delete. When it comes to
WP:NPOL, we have to evaluate this under criterion #2 — "local political figures" — but at that level of office, the difference between a keep and a delete is not "holds office ergo automatic pass", but hinges on the depth and quality of
reliable sourcing that can be shown about their holding of the office. But none of the sourcing here is adequate, and merely being a candidate for a statewide position, where the election is still 1.5 years away so the primaries haven't even happened yet, is not grounds for a Wikipedia article in and of itself either. No prejudice against recreation in November 2018 if he wins the statewide Commissioner of Agriculture election, but nothing here is enough today.
