Lincoln NE isn't a global city for the purposes of making her notable as a city councillor, and being a non-winning candidate for higher office is not a notability freebie either — if she does not already have a strong claim of preexisting notability for other reasons, then she has to ''win'' election to a state or national office, not just be a candidate for it, to clear . In extremely rare special cases, a candidate might receive so much media coverage that we keep her on pure  grounds — but that doesn't automatically happen just because ''some'' campaign coverage ''exists'', because some campaign coverage ''always'' exists for ''every'' candidate in ''every'' election. To pass GNG on pure "media coverage exists" grounds, the coverage has to mark her candidacy out as ''special'' for some reason, like the explosion of international coverage that Christine O'Donnell got which has managed to make her article twice as long and three times as well-sourced as the article about the actual senator she lost to. But more than half of the references here are |primary sources that do not support notability at all, and once those are taken out of the equation the media coverage left over is ''not'' enough to make her more special than every other candidate everywhere else
