Neither being village president in a small town nor being a non-winning candidate in a still-upcoming congressional election is an  pass in and of itself, but there's not nearly enough proper |reliable sourcing here to suggest that he passes  in lieu. Almost half of the 11 footnotes are to |primary sources, such as his own campaign website and the self-published websites of organizations he's been directly affiliated with, which are not notability-supporting sources — and while the other half is real media coverage, it's all ''local'' media coverage of the volume and range and depth that's merely ''expected'' to exist for ''all'' smalltown mayors and ''all'' aspiring House of Representatives candidates ''anywhere''. So they do not constitute credible evidence that he's a special case over and above everybody else who's done the same things without getting a Wikipedia article for them: at these levels of significance, a person has to be demonstrably ''more'' notable than most other people at the same level, such as by having a significantly ''nationalized'' coverage profile. Obviously he'll qualify to have the article recreated if he wins the congressional seat in November, but nothing here already gets him over the notability bar today
