'''Danny Lee Patrick''' (July 8, 1941 - July 26, 2009) was an [[educator]] and [[farmer]] who served as a [[Republican Party|member]] member of the Arkansas House of Representatives from 1967 to 1970. Patrick served two two-year terms from Madison and Carroll counties in northwestern Arkansas.<ref>Arkansas House of Representatives: kaye@arkleg.state.ar.us</ref> His tenure coincided with that of [[Winthrop Rockefeller]], Arkansas' first [[GOP]] governor of Arkansas since [[Reconstruction]]. Like Rockefeller, Patrick was defeated in his bid for a third term in the 1970 [[general election]], in which the [[Democratic Party|Democrats]], led by gubernatorial candidate, [[Dale Bumpers]] of Franklin County, also in northwestern Arkansas, wiped out the gains that Republicans had accrued during the Rockefeller interlude.
