Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jana Sanchez
People do not get articles just for running as candidates in elections they did not win — the base notability requirement for politicians is ''holding'' a notable office, not just running for one, and the existence of some campaign coverage is ''not'' a GNG-based exemption from having to hold office because ''every'' candidate ''always'' gets some campaign coverage. To get an article on these grounds, the bar she has to clear is not just "verifiably stood as a candidate" — it is "her candidacy is of much more distinctively special, and much more nationalized, significance than most other candidates' candidacies, in some way that would pass the |ten year test for enduring significance", but nothing here demonstrates that at all. Further, several of the keep votes above come from SPAs who never contributed to Wikipedia at all before showing up in this discussion — and even some of the ones who can't strictly be tagged as SPAs are still not names I recognize as established participants in AFD discussions. This looks much, much more like sock or meat puppetry than the well-informed opinions of people who actually understand how Wikipedia's notability criteria actually work
