Delete Fails WP:NPOL as he's never held elected office. He stood in an election, but wasn't elected and just being a candidate isn't enough to justify an article. No indication he passes WP:GNG by being notable for any other reason - searches using his name as per the article and the slightly different spelling used in the reference don't find anything of value in this respect.

Delete. Non-winning election candidates do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates — if they didn't win the election and thereby hold the seat, then they need to be demonstrated as notable for some other reason besides the fact of having their name on a ballot, such as passing the notability standards for their prior career before they ran as candidates. But there's no such claim being made here at all. Bearcat (talk) 15:57, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as failing WP:NPOL; candidates for office are not inherently notable. PohranicniStraze (talk) 02:46, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – Any non-winning election candidate who hasn't held office is not notable. There are no other sources displaying notability so this article outright fails all notability guidelines. The article has grammatical errors that I can't understand, it is poorly written and it is a stub with no information useful to anyone. Delete. Redditaddict6 9 16:29, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
