Comment: Our notability standards for politicians have evolved significantly since 2007, so the rationale under which an article may have been kept in 2007 has no bearing on whether it's still appropriate in 2020 or not. As it stands, this article is referenced 60 per cent to |primary sources (raw tables of election results, the self-published websites of directly affiliated organizations, etc.) that aren't support for notability at all, and 40 per cent to routine local campaign coverage of the type that ''every'' candidate in ''every'' election can ''always'' show — so nothing here establishes that he has any claim to being appreciably ''more'' notable than the norm for unsuccessful candidates for office, which is the bar that unsuccessful candidates have to clear to merit Wikipedia articles. And he's not nearly high-profile enough to adequately control the very legitimate "abuse magnet" problems noted above, either: just because we may not ''like'' a person's actions or statements is not a legitimate reason to malign them in Wikipedia's editorial voice as some past editors of this article have attempted to do
