Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being unsuccessful election candidates per se — but this features neither credible evidence that she has preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten her into Wikipedia independently of the candidacy, nor any discernible evidence that her candidacy would pass the ten year test for enduring significance on the grounds of being somehow more special than everybody else's candidacies. Note also that this was deleted the first time it came to AFD, and then got recreated several years later with no discernible evidence that her grounds for notability had changed at all.

- comment - I will note, however, that the new article was not a recreation of the previous one, and thus not eligible for speedy deletion as a G4:Recreation of deleted article. This one fails on its own merits. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:14, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per my standards. She's totally non-notable as an attorney; "Campaigning for public office, or managing a congressional campaign or office, by itself, is not sufficient for notability!" Bearian (talk) 00:22, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
