Delete mayors of places with under 50,000 people are almost never notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:46, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Position does not render her notable per se and there is no other credible claim to notability. Agricola44 (talk) 13:24, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - with only local coverage, does not meet WP:GNG or WP:POLITICIAN. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:41, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - mayor of run of the mill municipality, "re-elected in 2017 with 2,360 votes." Lacking significant coverage. Bearian (talk) 16:11, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Mayors of places with a population of just 35K are not handed an automatic notability freebie just for existing as mayors, but she isn't sourced anywhere near well enough to make her a special case of significantly greater notability than most other smalltown mayors. As always, the notability test for smalltown mayors is a higher bar than just the existence of some purely local coverage in her hometown media market, because every mayor always has that — a smalltown mayor is not notable enough for a Wikipedia article unless and until her coverage substantively nationalizes well beyond just her local media market. But the only sources here that are more than local are a YouTube video and an Expedia listicle which are not reliable or notability-suporting sources at all, and a news article that happens to glancingly mention Fleisch soundbiting her thoughts and prayers in an article whose core subject is somebody else, which is not the kind of coverage that makes a difference.
