WP:BLP of an economist and non-winning political candidate, with some advertorial/PR overtones and a severe shortage of adequate sourcing; after stripping a deadlinked primary source from the article, the only other reference left is a not-substantively-about-him blurb about he and another non-winning candidate carpooling together to reduce campaign expenses. But that doesn't get him over WP:NPOL, and I can't find enough quality sourcing to salvage his notability for anything else. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 05:47, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete From what I searched, the only substantive sources other than the CBC are someone's blog post and an environmental economics book, none of which establish notability. Any other source located only made a passing mention of him or included an obligatory "candidate profile". Zach Vega (talk to me) 15:50, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
