From the Campaign Trail
Representative Patton has been busy meeting with local groups throughout the 24th District and Cuyahoga County to hear what issues are of concern to them and how he can help their communities.

I'm proud of that, because it means I'm doing my job and listening," Representative Patton said while speaking recently to a group of citizens in Solon.
