Patrick Elvin Fleagle (born March 22, 1951) is a former Republican member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. He represented the 90th legislative district from 1989 until 2006.[4][5]

Fleagle graduated from Waynesboro Area Senior High School in 1969 and from Juniata College in 1973.[5]

Fleagle's opponent in the 2006 Republican primary, Todd Rock, entered the race because of Fleagle's support for the 2005 legislative pay raise.[6] Rock defeated Fleagle by 111 votes in the primary. Fleagle was able to get on the ballot by defeating Rock 339-336 as a write-in for the Democratic ballot, setting up a rematch of the two rivals in the fall.[7] In the general election, Rock defeated Fleagle with 54% of the vote.[8]
