Political staffer and unsuccessful election candidate without a claim of notability sufficient to actually pass WP:POLITICIAN; nearly all of the sourcing here pertains to either his unsuccessful candidacy or his management of a campaign for a municipal council candidate (municipal councils not normally being an office that confers notability on the councillors themselves, let alone their campaign staff.) And although I cannot confirm this outright, there's an extremely high prospect of conflict of interest editing here as well — the article was created by User:Paladin1205, and the article topic is on the board of directors of an organization, "Civil Rights Now", which was known as, guess what, "Paladin Advocacy League" at the time the article was first created.
