puff piece for a candidate, doesn't meet WP:NPOL, merely a candidate, no sustained coverage other than the typical "x is running" CUPIDICAE💕 21:22, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Businesspeople, Politicians, and Arizona. Shellwood ( talk) 21:48, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Routine coverage of a new candidate running for office. Nothing special about being a business owner, hasn't done anything notable (yet) as a candidate. Running in a district with a PVI of D+24, likely to remain non-notable. Zaathras ( talk) 00:16, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to 2022 United States House of Representatives elections in Arizona. Fails WP:NPOL and WP:TOOSOON for an unelected candidate. KidAd • SPEAK 00:37, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect per Kidad. MB 01:33, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete and/or redirect. As always, people do not get Wikipedia articles just for running as candidates in future elections — the notability test for politicians is holding a notable office, and Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform for aspiring future officeholders to publicize their campaigns. But this fails to establish that he had preexisting notability for other reasons, nor does it suggest a reason to treat his candidacy as somehow more special than everybody else's candidacies. Obviously no prejudice against recreation after election day should he win the seat, but nothing here is grounds for him to already have a Wikipedia article today.

- Delete If he wins the general election he will be notable. We have decided that in almost all cases challengers for legislative office are not notable, and there is nothing here to suggest that Pozzolo is the extremely rare exception to that rule.

- Delete Non-notable political candidate. Pennsylvania2 ( talk) 16:30, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect per Kidad as an alternative to deletion and as an usual and appropriate outcome. -- Enos733 ( talk) 18:02, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
