obviously without prejudice against recreation after election day if he wins. People are not permanently notable just for running as election candidates per se — the notability test at  is ''holding'' a notable office, not just running for one. To make a candidate notable enough for an article without having to hold office first, it would be necessary to demonstrate that either (a) he was already notable enough for an article for some other reason ''before'' running as a candidate (the Cynthia Nixon test), or (b) he has a credible and substantive reason why his candidacy should be considered markedly more ''special'' than everybody else's candidacies for some reason that would pass the |ten year test for enduring significance (the Christine O'Donnell test). But neither of those have been passed, or even attempted, here. Obviously he'll get an article in November if he wins, since his notability claim will have changed from "candidate" to "officeholder", but nothing here already justifies an article today
