Delete: The information on the page is insufficient for the
WP:POLITICIAN criteria. I note some passing coverage of the subject's 2010 resignation from the FN (
[1]) but that is no better for establishing the subject's notability.

Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they did not win — the notability test at
WP:NPOL is holding a notable political office, not just running for one. But this makes no other claim that she has any preexisting notability for other reasons besides the candidacy, and is referenced solely to her own party's
self-published list of its own candidates rather than any evidence that she has received enough
reliable source coverage to claim a
WP:GNG pass.

Delete only elected officials are default notable, candidates are not. We used to accept certain candidates as default notable, but we realized at some point that this just created article clutter with lots of articles that were basically campaign brochures.
