The result was Delete. Consensus was that this doesn't pass WP:POLITICIAN, and I believe that to be correct. Clearly, to pass #3 of this guideline, coverage does have to be significant outside the local press; otherwise every local councillor or representative in the entire world would effectively be notable. Equally clearly, if he wins the nomination and starts getting more widespread coverage then there if every possibility that he may cross the line of notability in the future.

fails WP:POLITICIAN. Only coverage is the standard local dross you'd expect from any congressional candidate Ironholds ( talk) 20:05, 24 August 2009 (UTC) reply
I respectfully request this article be de-nominated for deletion, and also request that it be nominated for semi-protection. NYyankees51 ( talk) 20:02, 28 August 2009 (UTC) reply
