Nathan Vasquez (lawyer): One is about an ethics complaint, so is about him.  Two are geofenced from me.  After hw won, the remainder are P pieces about the win.  Fails WP:NPOLITICIAN , failed WP:BIO .  He was a WP:ROTM attorney, doing his job, now a DA doing his job.  🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:39, 23 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People , Law , Oregon ,  and North America .  🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:39, 23 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:TOOSOON .  That guys been a prosecutor for a long, long time.  It maybe created once notability has been established, but at this point, no.

WP:BLP1E only applies when "[t]he person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual," which won't happen here.  WP:NPOL is here to keep Wikipedia from getting cluttered with local officials who don't get coverage and unsuccessful candidates whose only notability is associated with the race.  Moreover, he has received significant coverage in local and national media ( AP , New York Times , New York Times , Oregonian , Willamette Week ).  Furthermore, national reliable sources have covered Vasquez in the context of the political significance of his win; see New York magazine and Politico .  The most we could do is draftify it until January 1, but I think the sources justify keeping the article now, and delaying the inevitable creation of a virtually identical article for a few months strikes me as a case of WP:IDONTLIKEIT .  Dclemens1971 ( talk ) 20:58, 23 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per above.  It would be ridiculous to say he's not notable until the moment he takes office in six months now that he's won.  Therequiembellishere ( talk ) 19:03, 24 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per Dclemens1971.  Subject is obviously notable, in my opinion.  --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:12, 24 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per Dclemens1971.  I disagree with characterizing the sources as churnalism, particularly the national coverage (and there are many more that could be added).  Vasquez is part of a notable trend of centrist challengers defeating progressive DAs in most major cities on the west coast, which continues to attract coverage.  He will oversee enforcement of Portland's homelessness policies (which have been covered by NYT and others for several years), and may receive significantly increased coverage if the pending Supreme Court decision (brought by plaintiffs in Oregon) overturns restrictions on homeless enforcement as widely expected.  He will also take office in the aftermath of drug re-criminalization in Oregon.  Any deletion would be temporary as national coverage is very likely to continue after he is sworn in.  Jamedeus ( talk ) 23:22, 24 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Subject is very notable.  His win and the election as a whole have been reported on national news (AP, NY Post, other local sources, etc).  PortlandSaint ( talk ) 03:22, 25 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:SNOW Keep Vasquez just won the election according to every notable source previously cited, and is therefore the incoming District Attorney of Multnomah County, the most populous county in the state of Oregon.  Per WP:JUDGE , local elected officials who have received significant press coverage are automatically presumed to be notable.  The guideline also specifically states that people who have not yet assumed an office may still be considered notable.
