George Wolfe (Irish politician)

George Wolfe (died 1 December 1941) was an Irish farmer and Cumann na nGaedhael party politician, who served for nine years as TD for the Kildare constituency.

He was elected to Dáil Éireann on his first attempt, at the 1923 general election, becoming the only Cumann na nGaedhael TD in the 4th Dáil from the 3-seat Kildare constituency. He was re-elected at the June 1927 general election and again at the September 1927 general election, but did not stand at the 1932 general election, when the Cumann na nGaedhael government was replaced by Fianna Fáil after ten years in office.
