Clement James Drummond Smith (26 July 1894 – 7 June 1968) was an Australian politician who represented the South Australian House of Assembly seat of Victoria from 1938 to 1941 as an independent.[1]
He was one of 14 of 39 lower house MPs at the 1938 election to be elected as an independent, which as a grouping won 40 percent of the primary vote, more than either of the major parties. Tom Stott was the de facto leader of the independent caucus within parliament.
