I believe that this article should stay because the subject has received national media coverage and is notable. This article should be improved, not deleted. Narayansg16:04, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Narayansg: I agree with what you wrote back in April. Do you still believe this is true? I'd encourage you (or anyone that has an opinion on this subject) to participate in this discussion in the coming days: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hiral Tipirneni (2nd nomination). From what I understand, comments made on this talk page are not likely to be considered (and may be deleted if/when this article is deleted). -- RobLa (talk) 21:57, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not supporting Lesko, and I don't know if the malpractice suit made any difference, but it's important to know why Democrats won or lost contests. This was an especially notable contest since it was a seat in which the Democrats didn't even enter a candidate in previous years, but Tipirneni would up with a respectable showing. The NYT story gave several reasons why this was a significant contest. --Nbauman (talk) 04:02, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
