From a first look, it does not appear to pass the WP:GACR6. I briefly outline where it fails:

Short lead: it is only a single sentence. Typically, a good lead is about 400 words.
Issues with prose: many events are described as single sentences. It is challenging for the reader to care. For example, it is said in the article, "Ran as an outraged, "pissed off renter" with her campaign centering around a pro-tenant agenda that included rental reforms and greater housing options." My question as a reader is, why she was "pissed off?" Spending a few sentences to provide some background describing the problem is essential. Moreover, some information about what made her choices engaging is also necessary. For example, what did the opposition campaign do? Was she the only candidate advocating for what she believed in?
Adding more wiki links; for example, you mentioned Boeing.
Missing information, e.g., how long did she work for Boeing?
Legacy, aftermath, etc. What has happened after the actions of this politician? This needs to be more clearly explained.
- A good way is to describe the bills she passed and the aftermath of these bills. For example, how many houses were built if land was sold for affordable housing?
- How did she "strengthen tenant rights"? etc.
- Life after politics? A.Cython (talk) 05:04, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

Overall, I feel it is underdeveloped, and I am inclined to reject it.

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
The lead is too short as a single sentence. Expanding the relevant sections by adding context.
It is factually accurate and verifiable, as shown by a source spot-check.
a (reference section): b (inline citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
Overall it appears factual from what I have checked. However, adding relevant wiki links would help.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
While the little it has is focused on the subject, it needs some context to understand the subject.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
Appears neutral.
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It appears stable, with no edit wars.
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have non-free use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
It would elevate the article if there was at least one more picture, especially as an active politician.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
No verdict yet until the above comments are addressed. Otherwise, I would have to fail it. A.Cython (talk) 00:52, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
