Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shay Chan Hodges
Being an as yet unwinning candidate in a party ''primary'' race is not a claim of notability that gets a person into an encyclopedia in and of itself — if you cannot demonstrate and |properly source that she was ''already'' notable enough for an article on some other basis ''prior'' to her candidacy, then she has to ''win'' the election (and I mean the big enchilada in November, not just the primary race) to become notable because of the candidacy itself. And the volume of RS coverage, which is almost entirely local to Hawaii and thus  since local coverage of local election races is ''expected'', is ''not'' sufficient to give her the rare "notable because the campaign coverage exploded massively beyond the norm" exemption that Christine O'Donnell got. No prejudice against recreation if she wins the seat in November, but nothing here is enough as of today
