A candidate for the Minnesota House of Representatives. Can't find anything about her except for her announcement. Fails WP:POLITICIAN. There is no place at the moment to merge or redirect the article to. Prod was contested with, "state politician is notable because of officially acknowledged endorsement of U.S. Congressperson" Bgwhite (talk) 05:39, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Non-notable per WP:POLITICIAN & WP:GNG. An endorsement does not establish notability.--JayJasper (talk) 21:23, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Candidate not inherently notabile. Only minor and routine local-press coverage. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:42, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - As much as I personally would like to see EVERY candidate for election have sourced WP biographies — which would be a massive public good — that is not consensus. This is an easy call under notability guidelines, unelected state-level candidate. Carrite (talk) 16:06, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Per WP:GNG since a good faith search yielded no "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article". Nimuaq (talk) 22:11, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
