Doesn't meet any of the requirements of WP:POLITICIAN: not elected to an international, national or sub-national office, no significant press coverage, and no 3rd party sources to meet the WP:GNG. Being a failed candidate, an official of the local branch of a political party or a superdelegate doesn't meet any WP:Notability standards. Tassedethe ( talk) 17:15, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

- Delete. A politician who gets coverage mainly from running for office. Does not satisfy WP:POLITICIAN. Not finding significant independent RS coverage to pass GNG. • Gene93k ( talk) 18:30, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. Unelected candidates for office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates — if you cannot demonstrate and properly source that he's notable enough for an article for some other reason independent of his candidacy, then he has to win the election, not just run in it, to stake notability onto the election itself. But being a superdelegate to a political party convention does not clear the bar in and of itself, and nothing else here does either. Bearcat ( talk) 18:44, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
