As the second half of the Fine Geddie juggernaut, Geddie’s domain is the 5th floor (House) of the Statehouse. No one has managed it better over the years.

He has unrivaled relationships in the House on both sides of the aisle and is extremely close to the Speaker.

Prior to teaming up with Joe Fine in 1984, Geddie was Director of State Governmental Affairs for Alabama Power. He also served as Legislative Liaison and as Executive Assistant to Governor Fob James, and was a staffer for the late U.S. Senator John Sparkman.

Several of the most prominent businessmen on the Power & Influence 50 have Geddie on speed dial and rely on him to represent their interests before the legislature. They trust him so much, in fact, that rather than donating directly to candidates, many business heavyweights contribute to Fine Geddie’s political action committees and allow them to allocate the resources however they see fit.
