Keep: It doesn't violate WP:Crystal because it's a)a notable event almost certain to take place, and b)speculation about it is well documented. Orser67 (talk) 15:46, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I also want to note that, in what was essentially the same situation in 2015, there was a strong consensus to retain the 2020 United States Senate elections in this discussion: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United States presidential election, 2020. The same conclusion was also reached in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United States Senate elections, 2012 (from 2007) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United States Senate elections, 2012 (2nd nomination) (also from 2007).

Keep per Orser67. Perhaps some of the others shouldn't be kept, but this covers the whole thing and there has been a few announcements about some aspects of this. Per the precedent set by other discussions that snowed. J 947^{'s public account} 21:08, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep First, you nominated 30 articles at once. These should have been bundled; you are wasting people's time to make then comment on all of them so I won't. The one next election has generally been kept, per Orser's comment. This is the overview article with relevant detail about the next election for these seats. However, I would suggest redirect for the individual state election articles. I have removed unsourced WP:OR from many of them (e.g. [1], and what remains is idle talking-head kitchen-sink speculation that need not be kept either.

Keep: For many of the same reasons that I stated at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2022 Oregon gubernatorial election. I didn't realize then that many similar articles had been nominated for deletion, but I would support keeping them on the whole as notable. Some articles can be improved to include reliable sources that shows discussion of the topic, but wholesale deletion of all of the articles, especially considering that they describe the next election in each case, is unwarranted.

Comment There just are not enough (zero) consequences for poorly formed and timewasting AfD nominations, it seems. Anarchangel (talk) 00:58, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep scheduled event. —GoldRingChip 03:07, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above consensus WikiAviator (talk) 04:25, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep this is the next election for those particularly Senate seats. GoodDay (talk) 17:51, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
