[edit] Clay Oliver Hill
Distinctly non-notable politician. Survived an AfD in 2004 but has done nothing since. Delete. BlueValour 21:29, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete possible hoax; non-notable anyway. Tom Harrison Talk 21:38, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Not a hoax. I confirmed that he is running in the 2006 Congressional election. See the See also references in the article. Less icky than most other Florida politicians. TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 22:15, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete for the same reasons I gave in the 2004 vote. —Sesel 23:02, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Insert obvious personal attack on the politician here, but he ran for major political office and got on the ballot, so he has become notable. Sigh. Could become as notable as that guy in San Francisco who called himself Emperor of the U.S. and Mexico, but I doubt it. GRBerry 03:29, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- He did not make the presidential ballot in any state. —Sesel 03:50, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- I accept your assertion as true about the presidential ballot. He did however, qualify for the 2006 congressional ballot, which is a major political office. GRBerry 13:36, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Running as a very minor candidate for one of 435 seats is not a major political office. —Sesel 14:22, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

- Keep, not hugely notable, but not completely non-notable.—Pengo 09:30, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep he is a political person who ran/running for an office making him notable so why not keep him in.--Rhydd Meddwl 13:50, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. I could run for the Dáil next year (and actually appear on the final ballot) by getting 15 people to come to City Hall and endorse me. That would not make me notable. Someone who couldn't even get on the presidential ballot is not notable. Stifle (talk) 14:11, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
