Article does not meet criteria at WP:POLITICIAN. He has twice been a sacrificial lamb candidate (which the page pretty much admits). Page also cites few sources. Even the few sources cited are minor incidents that are not notable. Only one page links to him - the United States House of Representatives elections, 2002 page, which shows his 71%-26% loss.

Delete Interesting that a major party nominee for the federal legislature would recieve hardly any coverage, but it appears that he never stood a chance of winning. Doesn't meet WP:N, which is what WP:POLITICIAN defaults to for unelected candidates. Them From Space 01:08, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
