He was defeated in his attempt for reelection in 2005 after a controversial time in office which lost him his Charter Committee endorsement for his next election campaign. Smitherman was elected president of the Cincinnati chapter of the NAACP^[2] in April 2007. In 2011 Smitherman was reelected to Cincinnati City Council for another two-year term as an independent.

After winning reelection to Cincinnati City Council in November 2013 he announced he was stepping down as the local head of the NAACP in December.^[3]
