Janet Nguyen Sworn in as Orange County Supervisor

News summary

State Senator Janet Nguyen was sworn in as the Orange County First District Supervisor on Wednesday, filling the vacancy left by Andrew Do, who resigned after pleading guilty to a bribery charge involving COVID relief funds. Nguyen won the election against Frances Marquez with over 61% of the vote, and her term officially begins in January. She aims to address corruption in the county, emphasizing a commitment to transparency and accountability. The Board of Supervisors has initiated plans for a forensic audit of contracts related to the county's operations from January 2019 to August 2024, in light of Do's misconduct. Nguyen's swearing-in is part of a broader strategy to restore public trust in local governance following the scandal. Do is set to be sentenced on March 31 for his actions that misappropriated funds meant for vulnerable populations.
