Your submission at Articles for creation: Nicholas Robert Sherman (November 28)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Naraht was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: See WP:NPOL for what Politicians are notable, generally a county commissioner wouldn't be. The Monvalley article is the type of reference that would be useful to show a person's notability, the other references don't appear to be specific to Mr. Sherman.
