  • Dan Wofford is an American lawyer and politician. Running for United States Congress as a Democrat in 2002, Wofford lost a close race in Pennsylvania's 6th US House District to Jim Gerlach in 2002. Wofford is the son of the late United States Senator Harris Wofford (D-PA). He worked in the Pennsylvania governor's office and later directed Philadelphia's College Access Program, which helps low-income Philadelphia students prepare for college. The 6th US House district in Pennsylvania is a district that was gerrymandered by a Republican-led House in order to elect a greater number of Republicans, including State Senator Gerlach. The district was more competitive in 2002 than voter registration numbers suggested, and the election was close: Wofford lost by only 51% to 49%. In 2008, Wofford was a delegate from Pennsylvania to the Democratic National Convention. He voted for Democratic nominee Barack Obama. Wofford earned a bachelor's degree in history from Yale University in 1977 and a J.D. degree from Georgetown University in 1983. As a student at Harriton High School of Lower Merion in Rosemont, Pennsylvania, Wofford was the captain of the soccer team and an All-Pennsylvania lacrosse player. Wofford's 2002 campaign website was given "The Candidate Vanity Award" by the political website PoliticsPA for its large photo of Wofford. (en)
