Subject fails WP:NPOL for he is only a candidate for an office and has not held any political office, pretty much all the coverage pertains to the senate campaign, the biography section does not state notability either. - CHAMPION ^{(talk) (contributions) (logs)} 23:48, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Per nom. Just being a candidate doesn't get him a free pass under WP:NPOL, and it doesn't seem like he is independently notable for anything that would get him past WP:ANYBIO. PohranicniStraze (talk) 14:58, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to the election page, if applicable, since he hasn't won the election yet and doesn't pass WP:GNG. The sourced biographical information on him can be moved there. SportingFlyer talk 20:24, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete if Rich wins he will be notable, not until then.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:20, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Draftify, I agree with the comments above that he is not notable, but it might be more sensible to draftify the article until such time that the election result is known. — Insertcleverphrasehere ^{(or here)} 23:23, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect and merge to United States Senate election in New Mexico, 2018 per SportingFlyer; no coverage beyond election bid. --GRuban (talk) 19:20, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
