1986

After high school, he was a student at Miami-Dade Community College, receiving his associate degree in 1986, and then at Florida International University, where he received a degree in public administration in 1988, minoring in Political Science.

As a student he worked as a naturalist/interpretive guide at Arch Creek Park in North Miami.

When Florida House of Representatives State Representative Susan Bucher was unable to seek re-election due to term limits in the 86th District, which stretched from Boynton Beach to Boca Raton in eastern Palm Beach County.

He won the Democratic primary and the general election unopposed, winning his first term without any opponents.

1989

Pafford then worked for United States Congressman Lawrence J. Smith as a congressional aide from 1989 to 1992, and later worked for Florida House of Representatives State Representative Lois Frankel as a legislative assistant from 1996 to 1997.

2002

In 2002, when Frankel was unable to seek re-election in the Florida House of Representatives due to term limits, Pafford ran to succeed her in the 85th District, which stretched from Wellington to Lake Worth.

He faced Shelley Vana, a teachers union president, in the Democratic primary, and narrowly lost to her, receiving 46% of the vote to her 54%.

2006

He lost an additional race in 2006 for Palm Beach County Commission to Jess Santamaria.

2010

In 2010, he faced a challenge from Ron Miranda in the Democratic primary, who claimed that Pafford had an insufficiently pro-business voting record and criticized Pafford for his poor standing with Associated Industries of Florida.

Pafford responded by calling attention to his voting record and observing that some of the votes that were considered to be votes against the business community were not, noting, "If you look at what I voted against, you'll find things like Senate Bill 6 on education, you'll find some of the Medicaid reform. It's a lot of the bills that group into that pro-business type of votes by the chamber that weren't necessarily business votes."

He ended up defeating Miranda to win renomination, scoring 58% of the vote to Miranda's 42%, and advancing to the general election, where he faced only a write-in challenge and won re-election with 95% of the vote.

2012

When the state's legislative districts were reapportioned in 2012, Pafford ran for re-election in the 86th District, which contained some of the territory that he had previously represented.

He faced Tami Donnally, the Republican nominee and a business administrator, in the general election.

Pafford earned the endorsement of The Palm Beach Post, which criticized Donnally and praised Pafford for his support for Medicaid expansion under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and for his opposition to the law that required the closing of "the state's only tuberculosis sanatorium."

Pafford ended up defeating Donnally with ease, receiving 60% of the vote to her 40% and winning his third term.

2014

Though Florida House of Representatives State Representative Darryl Rouson was initially elected to serve as House Democrats' Minority Leader for the 2014-2016 legislative term, he was ousted by the Democratic Caucus.
