Geary to challenge Kizer for Henrico prosecutor

September 16th, 2009 · 1 Comment · ELECTIONS

Former Richmond prosecutor Matthew Geary plans to run against incumbent Wade Kizer for Henrico County commonwealth’s attorney.

Geary left his position as chief deputy in the commonwealth’s attorney’s office in April to join a private practice in Richmond, reports the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Kizer announced yesterday that he is running for re-election.

Both candidates will reportedly run as Republicans.

    Whichever side of the courtroom you may find him on, Matt’s always competent, committed, and sensible. I hope that Henrico voters have the wisdom to welcome him back into public service.
