In this work we propose a parton state as a candidate state to describe the fractional quantum Hall effect in the half-filled Landau level. The wave function for this parton state is $\mathcal{P}_{\rm LLL} \Phi_{1}^3[\Phi_{2}^{*}]^{2}\sim\Psi^{2}_{2/3}/\Phi_{1}$ and in the spherical geometry it occurs at the anti-Pfaffian flux. It has a good overlap with the anti-Pfaffian state and with the second Landau level Coulomb state of ordinary semi-conductors such as GaAs. By calculating the entanglement spectrum we show that this state lies in the same phase as the anti-Pfaffian state. A major advantage of this parton state is that its wave function can be evaluated for large systems, which makes it amenable to variational calculations.
