Judge Christopher J. Geer asked the Republican Party to accept him as a candidate for the Domestic Relations and Juvenile Court to help solve the numerous problems with the way cases are administered. After having been approached over and over by peers asking him to seek this office to remedy the problem, he and his wife concluded, after much soul searching, that at this juncture in his career, his candidacy could make a difference. Therefore, he has agreed to commit himself wholly to that task.

Judge Geer has been a resident of Columbus for fifty years, having lived on the east side in the Greenbrier Farms subdivision for twenty-five years. He has long-standing and deep associations with his law partners and the legal community, first as a law clerk, then practicing as an attorney for nearly twenty-eight years in central Ohio.
