Does not meet either
WP:POLITICIAN. He was an unsuccessful candidate for the state legislature in 2010 (he was defeated in the primary election), and his only other career highlight was a turn as county supervisor for the Democratic Party. I found one six paragraph newspaper blog post about him (in the Tampa Bay Times) and a fair deal of self-promotion (press releases and youtube posts), but nothing to satisfy the notability requirements. If the article is retained, it needs updating; it discusses him as a current candidate, but he was a candidate in 2010, not in 2012. Horologium (talk) 23:17, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply

- Delete: This person does not seem to meet WP:POLITICIAN at this time. As an aside, most of the cited references in the article are dead links. -- BenTels (talk) 17:39, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
