Early life and education edit

Patrick was born and raised in Weymouth and graduated from the Weymouth Public Schools system. His father, Michael, is a plumber. His mother, Terry, helps care for premature babies as a nurse.[3]

When he was 13 years old, he co-founded L40 Networks, an internet advertising and content promotion company.[4] This venture afforded him the opportunity to attend school in London at Kingston University where he studied politics and economics.[5]

Political career edit

O'Connor was elected to the Weymouth Town Council in 2005 and became president in 2014.[6] From 2008-15, he served as legislative director to State Senator Bob Hedlund and ran for State Senate following Hedlund's election as mayor of Weymouth.

In a special election on May 10, 2016, O'Connor won 53% of the vote to 47% by Democratic candidate former selectman Joan Meschino of Hull.[7] O'Connor was elected to his first full term on November 8, 2016, and is seeking another two year term.

During an interview with WCVB former Massachusetts GOP chair Kirsten Hughes suggested that O'Connor would be a good candidate for Governor of Massachusetts in 2022, should Charlie Baker not seek a third term.[8]
