Delete the coverage all basically approaches this as a slow news day coverage of the bizarre, not the stuff we make Wikipedia articles out of.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:02, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they didn't win — if he doesn't already have a strong claim of preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten him an article anyway, then he has to win the election, not just run in it, to become notable as a politician. While it's true that his candidacy got a blip of media coverage during the campaign, so did everybody else's candidacy — so that just makes him a WP:BLP1E, not a person who has passed the ten-year test for enduring significance yet.
