As I stated in the PROD that was challenged by an IP, Flood fails
WP:NPOLITICIAN. There is no significant/substantial coverage in independent sources; the CNN profile is just basic biographical data, not an article, and the Washington Post article barely discusses Flood. —C.Fred (

Delete. there are many great Americans with impressive backgrounds serving our country. I salute them. However, very few meet
WP:GNG or
WP:NPOLITICIAN. The Lieutenant, regrettably, does not.

Delete. Unelected candidates for office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in and of itself — if you cannot demonstrate and
properly source that he was already eligible for an article for some other reason independent of his candidacy, then he has to win the election, not just run in it, to be deemed notable because candidate per se. But this demonstrates no preexisting notability, and is not sourced to any substantive coverage about him to park a
WP:GNG claim on.

Delete Practically zero coverage in reliable sources. No coverage not related to his candidacy for office. Fails
WP:NPOL and
WP:BASIC.
