I don't believe this meets GNG or NPOL. March is the former mayor of a small city and briefly ran for Lieutenant Governor (but did not win the primary). Originally, I hoped to expand the article, but there don't appear to be sources with significant coverage to do so. Most sources in the article are only tangentially related to March.

Keep: being major of a city of ~300,000 is notable enough for GNG I think. Jack4576 (talk) 12:04, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Which notability guideline grants automatic notability to cities of 300,000? Again just inventing criteria to meet your own keep desire. LibStar (talk) 13:12, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We've typically held that mayors of larger metropolises are notable here in AfD anyway; [1]. We need some sourcing to prove they've passed GNG. I don't think this individual has that. Oaktree b (talk) 15:50, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete I'm not seeing notability, NPOL isn't met. Oaktree b (talk) 12:47, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to 2022 Nevada lieutenant gubernatorial election. Not seeing notability per WP:NPOL, but I think preserving the page's history may be helpful if she decides to seek office in the future. 14:48, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
Merge properly sourced info into 2017 Henderson mayoral election and use a hat note to point to 2022 Nevada lieutenant gubernatorial election. BLP, fails GNG and BIO, but there is a perfect target for a merge and sourcing to preserve a basic bio in the election article. Info will be preserved and the target article will be improved. WP:BLP states "Be very firm about the use of high-quality sources"'; BLPs need IS RS with SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth for both content and notability per well known core policy (WP:V and WP:BLP) and guidelines (WP:BIO and WP:IS, WP:RS, WP:SIGCOV). // Timothy :: talk 07:09, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to 2022 Nevada lieutenant gubernatorial election. Fails WP:NPOL but worthy of redirect. LibStar (talk) 04:45, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
