Hide Profile

William Armstrong "Armie" Smith (1914-1996) served in the Georgia State Senate (1966-1974) representing the 34th District. One of only eight Republicans during the 1973-1974 term, Smith became Senate minority leader. As a leader in Georgia's Republican party, he was an instrumental factor in the construction of the party within the state, helping many new members get their start in politics (including Newt Gingerich and Paul Coverdell). Smith was also a leading member of the Fulton County Delegation and Republican Caucus.
