Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections per se — if she does not have a credible claim to preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten her an article anyway, then a candidate normally has to win the election, not just run in it, before the election turns into an article-clinching notability claim in and of itself. But there's no strong claim of preexisting notability here, and not nearly enough reliable source coverage about her to deem her candidacy a special case over and above everybody else's candidacies.

Delete No credible claim of notability. Merely being a candidate for office does not, except in really exceptional circumstance, meet WP:NPOL. People should know by now that articles on candidates should be created in the user space or draft space and moved to the main space if and when they get elected to office.
