Minor politician, failed election in one congressional district, campaigning to be nominated for another election. Not elected to any major office per [[WP:BIO]] and the encyclopaedic content of the article is covered at [[Ohio Second Congressional District Election, 2005]] in a much more balanced and comprehensive fashion. This reads like a fan page. There seems to be scope for an article on former members of the military running for political office, as an interesting facet of the current Gulf War debate in the US, but that's about it. This article is nearly twice the length of the one on [[Isaac Newton]] even though the guy's political career has essentially not progressed beyond a city council. And the list of references makes it look like original research. - [[User:Just zis Guy, you know?|Just zis Guy, you know?]] ^{[[User_talk:Just zis Guy, you know?|[T]]]}/_{[[Special:Contributions/Just zis Guy, you know?|[C]]]} :: ''[[User:Just zis Guy, you know?/AfD|AfD?]]'' 10:27, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

*'''Delete'''. There are 435 congressional districts within the United States. These seats come up for re-election every two years. Having a seperate article for every candidate who runs in each of these 435 districts every two years will provide us with a raft of articles of people who are notable solely for their failure to win a Congressional election. → [[User:Extreme Unction|<font color=#ff0000><b><i>Ξxtreme</i></b></font> Unction]] {<font size=0>[[User talk:Extreme Unction|yak yak yak]]</font> ł <font size=0>[[Special:Contributions/Extreme Unction|blah blah blah]]</font>} 13:07, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
