Deletion of John Warren (South Carolina politician)

Comment: As JPL mentions, it is |too soon to create an article on this individual. Wikipedia does not "wait" for possible notability; it must already be established otherwise we may as well throw away our notability guidelines

Comment: People do not get Wikipedia articles just for running as candidates in election primaries, or for getting enough votes to push the incumbent into a runoff — and even if he ''wins'' the runoff in the end, he's ''still'' not ''guaranteed'' an article just for going into the general election as the "official" candidate ''either''. The only sure shot over  is to ''win'' the general election and thereby ''hold'' the office — to get an article just for being a ''candidate'', he would have to be shown to garner coverage that goes significantly ''beyond'' the routine local election coverage that's merely ''expected'' to exist for ''all'' candidates, but that's not what the sourcing here is showing. No prejudice against recreation in November if he wins the seat and becomes governor-elect, but nothing here is already grounds for a Wikipedia article today
