George Edward Lavender (born September 7, 1955) is an American state politician and a Republican former member of the Texas House of Representatives, having been first elected on November 2, 2010 and voted out of office in 2014 after only two terms.

Lavender was defeated, 45–55 percent in the 2008 general election by the Democratic incumbent Representative Stephen James Frost of New Boston, also in Bowie County. However, in 2010, with a narrow 51.5 percent of the vote, Lavender unseated Frost. Earlier, in both 1994 and 1996, Lavender ran unsuccessfully for the District 1 seat in the Texas State Senate, first as a Democrat, then as a Republican. He attempted to retake his seat in 2016, but lost by 24 points to Rep. Gary VanDeaver. In 2022, it will be his seventh campaign for public office.
In the 2011 House session, Lavender served on the Transportation and the Land and Resource Management committees. He worked for passage of legislation signed by Governor Rick Perry, which permits the manufacture of incandescent light bulbs in Texas.

Lavender said consumers should have the choice of light bulbs and jobs in the industry should be kept in the United States.
In the 2012 general election Lavender faced no Democratic opponent. To secure his second term, he received 42,049 votes (82.6 percent) to the Libertarian Tim Eason's 8,830 ballots (17.4 percent). In his two terms, Lavender filed 43 bills, of which only 4 became law.

On March 1, 2016, VanDeaver defeated Lavender in a rematch in the Republican primary. VanDeaver polled 18,263 votes (61.9 percent) to Lavender's 11,242 (38.1 percent).
Lavender ran against VanDeaver again in 2022, this time with a third candidate (Ray Null) in the Republican primary. His campaign finance forms filed with the Texas Ethics Commission indicate it is a self-funded campaign with a personal loan of $50,000. He has been caught in several lies publicly with video evidence and documented records. Once again, Lavender lost to VanDeaver, and even with a third candidate in the mix VanDeaver increased his winning percentage over Lavender.
