Delete. Politicians at the local level of office are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to pass conditional notability standards that hinge on demonstrating the impact of their political careers: specific things they did, specific projects they spearheaded, specific effects their stint in office had on the development of the town or city, and on and so forth. But this is basically just his résumé, and features virtually no content at all about his impact.
And a local politician having the merely expected level of run of the mill local coverage is not, in and of itself, an inclusion freebie either — every local politician has local coverage, so if that were how it worked then every local politician would get an inclusion freebie and nobody would actually have to be measured against NPOL at all anymore. So, again, the notability test for a barangay chairman is not "he exists", it's "he has a compelling reason why he should be seen as a special case of significantly greater importance than all the other barangay chairmen in the Philippines", and nothing of that calibre has been shown here.

The subject person is a politician who served as a city councilor for four terms, a vice mayoral candidate in 2019, and mayoral candidate in 2022. He is now an elected barangay chairman. AtorniYormeJKLlamera (talk) 17:27, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
City councillors and vice-mayoral candidates aren't "inherently" notable either, and still have to clear the same high bar as I pointed out for barangay chairmen. The lowest level of political office that automatically guarantees a Wikipedia article to every holder is the provincial legislature, and there's no such thing as automatic notability at the city level at all.
