Merge proposal

{{archive top|status=passed|result=Unanimous consent to merge. 90%+ of the campaign article was already in the main article anyways p b p 21:59, 16 January 2024 (UTC)}}

Now that campaign is over, I am again proposing a merge of Larry Elder 2024 presidential campaign into this article. The article has a "Political positions" section that is duplicative of a section featured within this article, and so should be merged. The rest of the article is five short paragraphs (each about two-sentences). Very clearly able to be merged without length issues. The campaign was not all that impactful or notable on the primaries, and therefore lacks much other content that could expand the page. The campaign received very little media coverage (it seemed it would often go weeks at a time without there being any news stories). This article was prematurely created, and was never justified as a separate page. SecretName101 (talk) 16:02, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

:Support. I think that SecretName's reasons are valid. Considering he only ever gained true traction during the Newsom Recall, this belongs here for now. InvadingInvader (userpage, talk) 19:16, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

:Support. By no means was Larry Elder a notable enough candidate to deserve an entire Wikipedia page devoted to his campaign. Expoe34 (talk) 21:24, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

:Support. Really the only major candidates who deserve a separate article are those who participated in at least one debate. (And the frontrunner trump) MoMoChohan (talk) 22:20, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

:Support. Most of the campaign article is made from parts of this article and barely stands on its own. A merge would make the most sense here. DukeOfDelTaco (talk) 06:28, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

:Support. He never gained any traction and never made a debate. A megre would be the most logical. Yedaman54 (talk) 18:24, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
