Non-notable policitician. Candidate for mid-level office, apparently not elected and no other claims or refs to support beyond that scope. DMacks (talk) 15:47, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Non-winning candidates for political office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates, but are eligible for articles only if either (a) they win the seat and thereby hold the office, or (b) they can be shown to have already cleared a notability standard for some reason other than being a non-winning election candidate. But nothing here demonstrates or sources any preexisting notability, and in fact the article is more a WP:COATRACK for an organization he started than it is an actual WP:BLP of him.
