Comment: per {{U|IagoQnsi}}'s reasoning. The subject is what we'd call in New York a "county clerk", an elected local political position.  is quite clear that a local politician can be notable if there is |sufficiently deep coverage, as is the case here: "Just being an elected local official ... does not guarantee notability, although such people ''can still be notable if they meet the primary notability criterion'' of 'significant coverage in reliable sources....'"(''blue links removed, emphasis added''). Losing a race does not erase notability as shown by major media coverage. There was saturation media coverage for the past two weeks; the President of the United States came to the district and attacked him by name; there is a rare re-count possible. '''Note well''': Win or lose last Tuesday, he's also the candidate in this November's election. He's not going away, and a redirect to the special election will mess up the article for the fall election
