Inadequately sourced WP:BLP of a person notable only for being elected to a county council. This is not a level of office that constitutes an automatic free pass over WP:NPOL, but the article is not sourced anywhere near enough to make her a special case: it cites just four sources, of which one is a glancing namecheck of her existence in an article that isn't about her, and another is her bog-standard "candidate positions on the issues" questionnaire that every candidate gets whether they won or lost. Which leaves just two sources that are actually relevant to establishing her notability under WP:GNG, which is not enough sourcing to make a county councillor notable as every county councillor everywhere could always show two sources.

  • Delete This article smacks of presentism. I am also unconvinced that people have done enough research to actually back up the claimed uniqueness of this person.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:31, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete Non-notable politician since county commissioners are not notable. Coverage is typical election reporting and doesn't show she meets WP:GNG. Sandals1 (talk) 18:31, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
