Kenny Kramer, the model for Cosmo Kramer, Jerry Seinfeld's neighbor in the sitcom "Seinfeld," is running for mayor of New York City.
Kramer became a character on the show because the real-life Kramer once lived across the hall from Larry David, a "Seinfeld" co-creator.In real life, he has been making ends meet by conducting bus tours of "Seinfeld" sites in Manhattan. He said he decided to run because he thought the primary looked bleak.
