David Anthony Swinford (born June 28, 1941) is an agricultural consultant and lobbyist who served as a Republican member of the Texas House of Representatives from 1991 until his resignation on August 31, 2010. Swinford represented District 88 from 1991 to 1993 and then District 88, which included Carson, Moore, and Sherman, and Potter counties.
Swinford did not seek an eleventh term in the state House in the Republican primary election held on March 2, 2010. His successor, fellow Republican Walter Thomas Price, IV, known as Four Price, is an attorney from Amarillo. Before winning the general election held on November 2, 2010, Price had defeated an intraparty rival, Victor Leal, an Amarillo restaurateur and the former mayor of Muleshoe, the seat of Bailey County, Texas.
Swinford was born to the late Oley Earl and Hazel Alene Swinford, formerly of Wichita Falls, Texas. His brother, Jerry Swinford (1936–2011), a former field representative for the Texas Commission on Fire Protection, was at the time of his death the president of the Lubbock Retired Fire Fighters' Association in Lubbock, Texas. Swinford obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in agricultural education from Texas Tech University in Lubbock. He is married to the former Joyce McCoy (born 1943). They have a son, David C. Swinford (born 1965) of Lubbock, and a daughter, Melissa Rae Swinford (born 1967) of Dumas. Swinford has a nephew, Van Swinford of Dumas, the son of Jerry Swinford. Another brother, Sammy Allen Swinford, is deceased, as is Swinford's niece, Sheila Swinford Wright (1951–2008) of Lubbock, the daughter of Sammy Swinford.
