WP:BLP of a person whose only substantive or sourced claim of notability is being an as yet non-winning candidate in a party primary in a mayoral election. As always, this is not a claim of notability that satisfies WP:NPOL in and of itself -- he would have to win the general election and become the actual mayor to claim notability on an NPOL basis -- but the article is not sourced well enough to demonstrate his candidacy as appreciably more notable than the norm for aspiring municipal politicians: of the six sources present here, four are just run of the mill campaign coverage no different from what any candidate for any political office could always expect to receive -- and of the two sources that actually predate his candidacy, he's the bylined author of one of them and not its subject, while the other one completely fails to even mention his name at all and is here only to source a completely tangential fact about the demographics of the neighbourhood he lives in. None of this is enough to get him a Wikipedia article just for competing in an election primary. Bearcat ( talk) 20:46, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
