In the November general election upon winning the Democratic Primary, Patrick will face Republican Party nominee Tyler Wible, a Topekan who defeated moderate Cynthia Smith in the primary. He is running for Kansas' 19th State Senate district as a sixth-generation Kansan, coming from a family of farmers, miners, and teachers. Patrick is currently working in the Naval Reserve and returned to Kansas with his wife, Megan, to fight for rights in the Kansas Legislature.

I am also honored to say that I have been awarded the 2024 Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate distinction. MAD has recognized me as a candidate that advocates for gun violence prevention and will govern with gun safety in mind. I'm committed to passing legislation that saves lives.

I have also been endorsed by Sheet Metal Air Rail Transportation (SMART). I am honored to have the endorsement of these union workers!
