Delete per nom. Mccapra (talk) 19:39, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The subject has not won any of the elections he competed in. Furthermore, the only sources cited which actually focus on him appear to be (1) a letter to the editor of a newspaper and (2) a sarcastic commentary in a college student publication. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 22:28, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being unsuccessful candidates in elections, but this neither demonstrates that he had preexisting notability for other reasons independent of his candidacies nor evinces a reason to deem his candidacy as unusually notable in comparison to most other candidacies.
