Actor Ben Savage, best known for portraying Cory Matthews in the ‘90s sitcom “Boy Meets World,” wants to be a congressman. According to a campaign filing with the Federal Election Commission on Wednesday, Savage, a Democrat, is planning to run for the 30th District seat currently held by Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff.
Schiff is rumored to have his eye on Dianne Feinstein’s Senate seat in the upcoming 2024 election, though neither has made any formal announcements regarding the future. He has served California in the U.S. House of Representatives since 2001.
The 30th District includes Savage’s hometown of West Hollywood, as well as Burbank and parts of Pasadena. The 42-year-old actor previously ran for a seat on the West Hollywood City Council in 2022. Savage at the time said he wanted to “restore faith in local government” by addressing “serious challenges around public safety, struggling businesses, inflation and the cost of housing” in the city.
