Delete. Being president of a minor fringe political party is not an instant notability freebie that exempts a person from having to clear WP:GNG on the sourcing, but the sources here are not getting him over WP:GNG: one is a glancing namecheck of his existence in the party's own self-published press release, not a notability-supporting source, and the other is just a 24-word news blurb about him firing one of his underlings, not substantive coverage. This is not enough coverage in and of itself, and the role is not "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have a lot more. Bearcat (talk) 18:21, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails WP:NPOL as the subject has not won any elections neither held any important public post. The article [1] mentions that his party is a new party. --DBig Xrayᗙ 12:49, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
