The aforementioned district is in the northern suburbs of New York City, and Gere already lives in Pound Ridge, Westchester, which falls within the region. Middletown Mayor Joe DeStefano, who the Post describes as “an influential Democrat,” has the intel. “Richard Gere’s name is being whispered about among Democrats. We’ll see what he’s made of,” he said.

As Vanity Fair points out, he’s also the man behind non-profit organizations like the International Campaign for Tibet and the Gere Foundation in New York.
