Just being ... an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability" (). He is not ''just'' a candidate for political office and even if he was it would not necessarily rule out notability, it just would "not guarantee notability". Candidacy + UN work + NZer of the Year + MBE + chances of election + number of sources together get him over the line IMO
