::It's also worth noting that it's rare that you would get a complete non-notable person as a credible, major-party congressional candidate. Usually, congressional candidates have served as state legislators, mayors, county officials, etc. -- [[User:Mwalcoff|Mwalcoff]] 23:31, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
:::But it would be hundreds (eventually thousands) of unexpandable, likely unmaintained stubs, most of which will be ignored after the election by both readers and editors. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Black'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 01:13, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
::::I would very much disagree that articles on losing congressional candidates would be unexpandable stubs. You can see how much was written on [[Paul Hackett]], whose only prior political experience was as a village councilman. Imagine what we could write on [[Ann Womer Benjamin]], a former Ohio House speaker who lost a congressional race in 2002. (Her article is just a stub now, but it doesn't even mention her pre-2002 career.) -- [[User:Mwalcoff|Mwalcoff]] 02:06, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
