Delete per nom. The subject is a local farmer turned small business owner, a part-time local county commissioner, and a 2012 candidate for a failed gubernatorial run in Montana. A short CBS story about the subject's state-wide campaign on a shoestring budget is the only reliable source found, and that article by itself does not elevate the subject to notability. Fails WP:BIO and WP:POL, and does not meet notability guidelines. -AuthorAuthor (talk) Withdrawing !vote, per nom. AuthorAuthor (talk) 20:33, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Member of the Montana House of Representative (2017-2019) (as James). Ballotpedia bio. Passes WP:NPOL. --Enos733 (talk) 06:04, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. To be fair to the nominator, at the time of nomination the article was completely eliding his term in the state legislature — it hadn't been substantively updated since 2012, so it was stuck entirely on the NPOL fails and contained no information at all about the game-changer. It has now been updated to properly reflect his NPOL-passing role, however, so while it does still need improvement it's on more solid ground already.
