- Draft per WP:TOOSOON. All the coverage is specifically related to one event WP:BLP1E, if he does get elected he will be notable as you mention, thus drafting is best for now. Traumnovelle ( talk) 08:32, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: Beyond running as a candidate, the individual is not notable. TOOSOON applies. Can be re-created after the election win, if it goes that way. Oaktree b ( talk) 13:07, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
DraftifyDelete perWP:TOOSOON, andnom. and othersabove. Sal2100 ( talk) 20:08, 17 June 2024 (UTC)- Comment: Changing above !vote from "draftify" to "delete" per the rationale of Antonine below. Sal2100 ( talk) 21:53, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: This is a blatant example of not notable. WP:TOOSOON shouldn't apply here as otherwise you could apply to all the other candidates standing in the general election, but the editorial guidelines are quite clear that only notable people get articles. Simply standing for election in a national contest does not automatically make someone notable, so this should be an automatic deletion as a simple case of not being noteworthy. Antonine ( talk) 21:45, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Fails multiple categories related to BLP articles. Textbook example of not notable and not meriting an individual Wiki article. Go4thProsper ( talk) 23:30, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per previous votes. Unelected candidates are not inherently notable. BottleOfChocolateMilk ( talk) 20:02, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
