He has the coverage you would expect of an unsuccessful political candidate, but I don't see that he meets WP:GNG or WP:NPOL. Possible WP:ATD is redirect to 2009 Atlanta elections, I wouldn't say a merge would be helpful, as it would be too much information on this individual for the article.

Unsuccessfully running for mayor of a city is not an inclusion-clinching notability claim in and of itself, but this features neither the depth of sourcing nor the substantive analysis of his candidacy's importance needed to demonstrate that he should be treated as a special case.
