Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alex Zablocki (2nd nomination)
There seems plenty of coverage, and judging form the comments in the first AFD, significantly more cited coverage than there was when it was previously deleted. (the previous AFD included the comment "There are five news pieces about him" -- the curent article has at least 18 news story cites) The talk page comment "He was the first Republican to run for the seat since 1997, the first Staten Island resident since the 1960's to run citywide and the youngest candidate ever to run for citywide office in NYC" assuming it is supported by , also seems to contribute to notability. As to , a political campaign these days is not a single event but often a year-long series of related events. This one seems to have generated major news coverage over a period of close to a year. The article may indeed have been "written by a supporter" but that is a matter for editing, not deletion. (the version nominated for the first AFD was far more promotional, and was largely written by {{user|Alexforpa}}, an SPA who seems likely to have been the subject or a campaign staffer
