Candidate for Congress with no other claims to notability. Way, way too soon for an article on this guy--if he wins the election (though he might be favored), maybe we can create an article on him. Blueboy96 20:32, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:BIO#Politicians - being a candidate does not confer notability. JohnCD (talk) 20:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOTE. Only 4 gnews hits and only one is actually about him. Frank | talk 20:44, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. In a 10-person primary, he finished second, qualifying for a runoff. The runoff was against the winner of the 2006 special election, who had therefore held the seat for a while, yet he beat her. This is enough of an achievement to merit a bio article. Furthermore, although the current state of the article doesn't reflect it, there was certainly coverage of him, as both the primary and the runoff drew press attention.

- Comment - apparently, Shelley Sekula-Gibbs only won the special election to serve for < 2 months, and at the same time lost the general election for the following term. (An odd situation, I'd say.) Frank | talk 21:06, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOT#CRYSTAL. Maybe he's going to be famous one day, maybe not. Until then, he doesn't need an article, for he, at this point, appears to fail WP:BIO. --Mizu onna sango15/水女珊瑚15 22:34, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. Political candidates are not notable unless/until they win. KleenupKrew (talk) 00:11, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
