Andrew Hoang Do (Vietnamese: Andrew Đỗ; born April 23, 1963) is an American attorney and former politician who was a member of the Orange County Board of Supervisors for the first district from 2015[1] to 2024, when he resigned from office as part of an agreement with prosecutors in which he pled guilty to conspiracy to commit bribery.[2][3] A Republican, he previously served as both chair and vice chair of the board for two and three terms respectively. Do was a candidate for California State Treasurer in 2022, but was eliminated in the primaries.[4] Before serving on the board of supervisors, Do served as a member of the Garden Grove city council and was an Orange County deputy district attorney.[5]
Do has had multiple controversies relating to corruption throughout his political career including pay-to-play violations.[6] Most notably in 2024, he garnered attention after allegations that he used taxpayer money to spend on lavish expenses, such as personal homes, by funneling the money through a non-profit organization run by his 23-year old daughter.[7] The county filed a lawsuit to demand the return of the money, and then the FBI subsequently raided his and his daughter's homes.[8] Ultimately, these allegations would lead to Do's resignation and guilty plea for conspiracy to commit bribery on October 22, 2024.[2][3]
