Non-notable individual lacking in-depth, non-trivial support. Reads like a political statement more than a encyclopedia article. Fails WP:POLITICIAN. reddogsix (talk) 08:10, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

delete promotional page for a candidate. Can reconsider if he wins. Mangoe (talk) 14:56, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
keep He *did* win two elections: a Texas primary election and an open ballot primary, not just a candidate. Flying Toaster 18:01, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Winning a primary simply means that he gets to keep being a candidate. Mangoe (talk) 20:57, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - he is a candidate for state legislature, not Congress. Bearian (talk) 23:59, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Friendly Clarification The above is incorrect: he is a candidate for Congress, not state legislature Flying Toaster 00:11, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Friendlier Clarification The above is incorrect: he is a candidate for the Texas House of Reps 114th district (state legislature)... Not U.S. Congress. Redditaddict_6_9 00:53, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Friendly mea culpa Oh, my bad! Misread. Flying Toaster 00:57, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not only is he just a candidate for the state legislature, but he hasn't even won yet. No notability on two levels. Candidates for U.S. Congress have had their articles deleted (e.g. Jane Raybould, Bill Lee (Tennessee politician)), so state legislature should as well.
