Calls for Republican Orange County Supervisor Andrew Do to resign grow amid federal probe

Orange County Supervisor Andrew Do is facing increasing pressure to resign amid a looming federal probe involving his daughter, a local nonprofit and more than $10 million in unaccounted taxpayer money.

Do is in the last year of his second and last term as county supervisor, but calls for him to resign have increased after federal agents raided his and his daughter's home Thursday, with the scandal now the subject of a federal criminal investigation.

Among those asking him to step down is a former boss and mentor vying to take his seat at the end of his term. A fellow supervisor also urged Do to "consider" stepping down.
