    Geary, the official Republican candidate, refused to abandon his campaign, despite a public request that he do so by the Henrico County Republican Committee.

    The political battle reached a peak weeks before the election when Geary called Republican leader and county Sheriff Mike Wade a liar at a Republican breakfast in front of Cantor and other Republican leaders.

    Normally I’m glad to see local Republicans going at each other, but this row got especially brutal, and today, a man is dead, leaving behind a shattered family, and so many talking heads mouthing inevitable mantras of ‘thoughts and prayers’ going out to them.
