[edit] Charles Jay

Very minor candidate for U.S. president in 2004. He was only on the ballot in Utah and came in 6th with 946 votes. Candidates for office and generally not considred per se notable and Jay doesn't meet any of the tests in WP:BIO. Most U.S. Presidential candidates are notable for their press coverage or other things they have done but Jay's is the least notable of the 2004 candidates who recieved votes. Wikipedia:Candidates and elections suggest merging into the election page but that is full of other data. Perhaps the page on his Personal Choice Party could be a merge target.

  • Merge. Redirect wouldn't really be necessary, considering his non-notability. tmopkisn tlka 23:25, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Minor candidates who run for minor offices are not notable, but minor candidates who run for U.S. President I think do achieve a certain notability. Additionally, it appears Jay may have a certain notability in radio/boxing if the info in his (poorly formatted) bio is correct.[1] Шизомби 08:00, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
