McCormack is a native of Kenagh, County Longford, and was educated at St. Mel's College, Longford. He was elected to Seanad \u00C9ireann in 1987 by the Agricultural Panel and is also a former member of Galway County Council.

Prior to entering politics, he worked as a livestock auctioneer. He was Mayor of Galway from 1992 to 1993. He was Fine Gael deputy spokesman on the environment and local government, with special responsibility for urban renewal and housing policy in the 29th D\u00E1il. In April 2006, he announced his intention not to seek re-election at the forthcoming general election. However, in December 2006, after the withdrawal of Brian Walsh, the candidate originally selected by Fine Gael to replace him, McCormack announced that he had reconsidered his decision and would after all stand in the general election. He did stand, and in May 2007 he was re-elected on the twelfth of 13 counts, taking the third of Galway West's five seats. In December 2010, he failed to get a place on Fine Gael ticket in the Galway West constituency for the 2011 general election. He said afterwards that he was not considering being added to the ticket."@en . . . . . . . . . "P\u00E1draic McCormack"@en . . . . . . . . . . . . .
