As I read this article, I see no notability outside being a city councillor and therefore the subject does not meet the WP:POLITICIAN guidelines. – ukexpat (talk) 15:52, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, how much coverage does a city councilor need, to shift from being an unnotable person, to being notable? I don't usually know who city politicians are, especially if they aren't my councilor, but there's certainly been a lot of coverage for this fellow, and not just for the election spending incident. Sadly, most of the coverage I remember is radio coverage, and I made no effort to track that for citing. And, does it matter that this is the fourth largest urban area in the country?
