Voight was Miss Connecticut, but this is not enough on its own to demonstate notability. We lack any articles on the 10 Miss Connecticuts after her for example. Her other claim towards fame is being a local traffic/news reporter in Hartford. This has generated a little coverage from the local press, but the biggest article I could find was about her engagement, as much because her fiance is an executive chef at a popular restaurant. This would not be enough to justify having an article on him, I do not think it is enough for an article on her either. John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:39, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Just because there aren't articles about those other winners doesn't mean there shouldn't be something about them as well. There's nothing clear in WP:BIO about beauty pageants, so I think it's best to err on the side of caution since this seems to be a notable award.

Delete AFD consensus has been that winning a state-level pageant is insufficient for GNG. No other claim to notability establisthed. MB 04:54, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- a page on unremarkable individual with no indications of notability or significance. State-level pageant win is an insufficient claim of notability, per prior AfD outcomes. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:45, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -per points mentioned above regarding notability.--CaroleHenson (talk) 03:04, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I am normally strongly adverse to keeping beauty pageant bios, but this subject has transitioned to become a news anchor, which adds a career achievement and public noteworthiness factor to the equation. It should also be mentioned that this article does not suck, which is more than can be said about 99.236% of the beauty pageant bios. GNG pass. Carrite (talk) 12:54, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete still because WP:NOT applies, we're not starting every single pageant member article for the sake of it especially given that's the mere triviality. SwisterTwister talk 23:13, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
