Speculated candidates

There is no need to keep speculated candidates when the candidates has already filed nomination and the election is over. We do not include speculations as per WP:CRYSTAL as well as this info outdated so no need to be here. Please express your opinion.-Nizil (talk) 12:30, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Nizil Shah:: Can we include a "Decline Candidates" section including the now-incumbent Pranab Mukherjee? --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 18:41, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
TDKR Chicago, the article already mentions that "Initially receiving speculation for a re-election bid, Pranab Mukherjee decided not to run again in 2017 due to health concerns and problems relating to his age." So there is no need to mention it again. Other declined is not important either. -Nizil (talk) 05:54, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
