Democrats Tap Another Actor to Run for Congress

Democrats are pushing another Hollywood name to the ballot.

Page Six reports:

This could be his greatest role ever.

Actor Richard Gere’s name is being floated as a potential candidate for Congress in the northern suburbs, The Post has learned.

The current representative of the 18th Congressional District, Sean Patrick Maloney, is running in September’s Democratic primary for state attorney general and, if he’s successful, his House seat would be open.

And that’s where Gere comes in.

The 68-year-old activist, who lives in Pound Ridge, Westchester, within the district, is being talked up in Democratic circles as a possible replacement for Maloney.
