Poorly sourced article with just 5 lines about the individual, with the rest of the article being promotional toward a company (of the same name) he founded. A web search shows up only results of the same business. Mark the train^Discuss 17:13, 22 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep - he was a state-level and national politician. Anything that might otherwise be poor regarding the article can be fixed. - Sitush (talk) 17:36, 22 September 2017 (UTC) I've just restored the last good version. - Sitush (talk) 17:40, 22 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: But article needs work! - Ret.Prof (talk) 19:29, 22 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Has adequete sourcing and doesn't seem to be promotional at all, now that it has been cleaned up. RileyBugz ^会話 _投稿記録 20:39, 23 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. He has a clean pass of #1 as a confirmed member of national and state-level legislatures; any content issues beyond that are for the editing process to fix, not the deletion process. Bearcat (talk) 16:25, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
