and/or '''redirect'''. Creator is picking the wrong interpretation of what our notability standards for politicians means — it does ''not'' mean that every candidate is guaranteed his own standalone biographical article just for existing, it only means that the election article should include the candidates' ''names'' in e.g. tables of election results rather than ''just'' listing the ''winners''. The actual rule for making a candidate eligible for a Wikipedia article is that either he must already have preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten him a Wikipedia article ''anyway'', or the media coverage needs to ''explode'' to the point that he's got a credible claim to being a ''special case'' over and above most other candidates (the Christine O'Donnell path.) But the vast majority of the references here are |primary sources that do not support notability at all — and the little bit that's actually media coverage is simply ''local'' media coverage of the type and depth that's simply ''expected'' to routinely exist for ''every'' candidate ''everywhere'', so it's not close to enough to make him special
