Biography of a perennial candidate whose claim of notability rests on unsuccessful runs for political office in a single city — not a claim of notability that satisfies WP:NPOL. It's not particularly well-sourced either, as it relies extremely heavily on unreliable (e.g. blogs, local bicycling advocacy committee newsletters) and primary sources (her own Twitter); the number of references here would be more than halved if I actually trimmed them back to the legitimately reliable sources, and when you're counting references, "less than half of 16" is a WP:GNG fail. If this were Austinpedia, I'd let it go — but it's not, and what I'm not seeing here is a substantive or well-sourced reason why she needs an article in an international encyclopedia. Delete.
