A non notable politician. Local representative and then a lobbyist, doesn't seem to meet criteria. Sir Joseph (talk) 19:40, 25 January 2017 (UTC) reply

  • Delete The fact the best claim to fame this guy has (per the lede) is that "He is a long-term ally of controversial Republican National Committeeman Bob Asher, a mainstay in statewide and Montgomery County Republican politics" is evidence of his non-notability. WP:NOTINHERITED springs to mind. AusLondonder ( talk) 00:44, 26 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. According to the article, the highest political office he's personally held is on a smalltown municipal council, which is not an WP:NPOL pass in and of itself — and notability is WP:NOTINHERITED, so he is not more notable than the norm for smalltown municipal councillors just because he's "associated" with a more nationally notable figure.

  • Delete per WP:SNOW. Bearian ( talk) 21:41, 27 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - Fails WP:NPOL in that he held no national or state-wide position, and the references are nearly all from The Insider, a Pennsylvania political newsletter, so fails WP:GNG too. Cwmhiraeth ( talk) 14:15, 29 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Fails NPOL. Fails GNG/BASIC too. Lourdes 05:29, 1 February 2017 (UTC) reply
