to Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario leadership election, 2018. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being non-winning candidates in political party leadership races — if they didn't already qualify for a Wikipedia article for some other reason ''before'' being a leadership candidate, such as actually having held a notable political office already, then they have to ''win'' the leadership, not just run for it, to clear the notability bar. The coverage she's received in this context just makes her a , not a topic of sustained encyclopedic interest who would pass the |ten-year test. If she ''wins'' the leadership, then she'll be notable enough for her own article — but merely being a ''candidate'' in the leadership race is not in and of itself enough to earn her anything more than having her name present in the article on the race itself
