Like his associates, Larry Baldock, Bernie Ogilvy, Paul Adams and Marc Alexander, Smith only served one term before he left Parliament at the New Zealand general election, 2005, given that his party polled only one-third of its previous electoral support.

Later years

In the 2008 election, Smith stood for United Future in the electorate of Hutt South.
