How do you feel with Geoffrey Epstein running for mayor in a major Boston suburb?

Geoffrey Epstein is running for mayor in Framingham, Massachussets (a city around 73 000 inhabitants, which makes it the 14th biggest city in Massachussets). He is not the late New York financer Jeffrey Epstein though. He is a former theoretical physics professor who moved to USA many years ago from Australia.

Epstein, who served on the school committees in both Newton and Framingham, both major Boston suburbs, got in the race to tackle problems he sees the city facing. His campaign, he said, is focused on education, infrastructure and environmental action, and he has no shortage of solutions he’s pitching — from expanding solar installations on school roofs and in school parking lots, to shifting more of the city’s budget toward education.

It's also worth noting that he is not the only Epstein in politics. There is also Harvey Epstein, a Democrat who serves in local legislature of New York as a representative from 74th district, which covers parts of Manhattan.

Do you believe name recognition would help him or hinder his chances?
