An American campaign strategist of dubious notability. Eleassar my talk 10:12, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I found these: [1][2][3]. However, the latter two seem to be more about the organizations he is associated with rather than him as a person, and the first one is simply insufficient coverage. Sure, he's quoted substantially in the media, but that is not enough for an article, either. GABHello! 21:37, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:NOTRESUME and WP:MILL. I'm a former Democratic committeeman and consultant myself, and keep up to date daily on partisan politics, and like the lead says there's a reason I've never heard of him. He truly is up and coming. Bearian (talk) 18:51, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Not only is this a case of lacking any secondary sources, it is a case of original research desgined to cover the coordinated activities of one individual. There is a place for such original research, but it is in an investigative report in a newspaper. If such gets published, than depending on the circumstances it may create enough notability for Varoga to have an article on him, but creating the article in Wikipedia is not a legitimate way to do an end-run around the process of creating a newspaper article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:05, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and I would've explored speedy and PROD as an option, this would certainly need better to be acceptable and I'm simply not seeing the signs of solid independent notability. SwisterTwister talk 21:44, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
