> I would donate money to the "anti-Lamar-Smith" fund. Perhaps we could fund a couple billboards in his area.

This happened.

"Reddit's" Political Action Committee, "Test Pac", was raising funds to put billboards all over his district[1]. I'm not sure if that was aimed more at the primary, which Smith won, or at the general election. I think it's the latter.

Breadpig also raised funds for a billboard around the time of the primary[2], and I believe there actually was a billboard up in the district as a result of this. It may still be up.
