Comment: Please note that per Wikipedia's notability standards for politicians, people do not get Wikipedia articles just for being selected as candidates in future elections. The bar for getting a Wikipedia article is holding a notable political office, not just running for one, and unelected candidates get articles only if they already have some other notability claim besides the candidacy that would already have gotten them an article on those grounds as it is.
So when the election is held she'll get an article if she wins it, but she does not qualify for an article just for standing as a candidate. Bearcat (talk) 19:06, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
