John Connor (born 14 February 1944) is an Irish former Fine Gael politician. He was elected to Dáil Éireann at the 1981 general election as a Fine Gael Teachta Dála (TD) for the Roscommon constituency.[1]

He lost his seat at the February 1982 general election, and was not elected at the November 1982 general election. He was nominated by the Taoiseach Garret FitzGerald to the 17th Seanad in February 1983. He was elected to the Agricultural Panel of the 18th Seanad in 1987. At the 1989 general election he re-gained his Dáil seat for the Roscommon constituency and was re-elected for the new Longford–Roscommon constituency at the 1992 general election.[2]

He again lost his Dáil seat at the 1997 general election but was again elected to the Agricultural Panel of the 21st Seanad. At the 2002 general election he failed to get elected to the Dáil and he also lost his Seanad seat.[2]
