- Keep - Senatorial candite and recieved over 15% of vote in New Haven majorial election. The nom is AfDing, prodding or speedy tagging a majority of Green Party member articles. Could be a bad faith nom. --Oakshade 16:21, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
- Delete generally speaking, losing candidates for races are not notable; this more so the more minor the race or the further down the field one finishes. Coming in 2nd in a US Senate race may confer notability; coming in 4th doesn't with a whopping 1/2 of 1% of the vote does not. In fact the pinnacle of his career appears to be his receiving 15% of the vote in a mayoral election of a mid-size city (the majority of whose mayors - i.e., the folks that win - don't have articles) and its been downward since (2.5% in a congressional election, and 0.5% for senate). nn. The keeper's accusation of bad faith is way out of line. Carlossuarez46 21:51, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
