Deletion of Andrew Norton (politician)

Comment: Comparing the national chairman of the Republican Party to the national chairman of a minor-to-trivial party like the Pirate Party is ludicrous. In particular, Michael Steele has generated a ton of coverage as national chairman, while Andrew Norton has generated virtually none. In my opinion the Pirate parties are barely notable (neither of them has ever run a candidate for election or gotten certified to appear on a state ballot), but I am leaving them alone since most of us tend to cut political parties a lot of slack. However, I have put a note on the talk page of Talk:Pirate Party of Oklahoma saying that I think the state party does not deserve its own article and should be merged/redirected to United States Pirate Party - as per  which indicates that local chapters of national organizations are not generally notable

Comment: As an unelected politician, he does not meet .  I can find no significant independent coverage in reliable sources to establish notability, so  is also not satisfied.  The sourcing in the article is not independent.  I can find no coverage myself.  The sourcces alluded to boce in the article talk page are not sources, but assertions that coverage exists without actually providing any examples of said coverage.  He is quoted in articles, but that's not coverage about him
