Unity Party of America[edit]

Sub-minor political party in Colorado without reliable sources (to be a minor party you need 1000 affiliants). Ran two candidates, neither of whom got any significant vote percentage, or more than passing coverage (One of them Bill Hammons, is presently at AfD, nominated by me.) gnfnrf (talk) 05:34, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - in aforementioned AfD, notability was demonstrated. Same in this case, enough for WP:N. I'd probably even err on making an exception for inclusion with registered political parties that run candidates over the usual notability standard - certainly not exclusion.

Delete per nom. Hammons' AfD is still open and notability is far from demonstrated at this point. It's not inheritable, anyway. Rklear (talk) 13:28, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Any party which can get candidates on the ballot is notable. Simple criterion. DGG (talk) 03:33, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep Nominator makes a factual error, this is not just a Colorado political party, it got people on the ballot in Colorado and Pennsylvania. Because of that it squeaks by on notability. Edward321 (talk) 16:28, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Terry Ronzio was not on the ballot in Pennsylvania. [1] I said Colorado political party because Colorado is the only state where the article even asserts the party has any recognition at all. gnfnrf (talk) 20:40, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
