John M. W. Moorlach (born December 21, 1955) is a Republican California State Senator representing 37th Senate district, which includes portions of Orange County, since March 22, 2015. He previously served on the Orange County Board of Supervisors from December 5, 2006 – January 5, 2015 and as Orange County Treasurer-Tax Collector from March 17, 1995 – December 5, 2006.

Early life

Born Johannes Meindert Willem Moorlach in Groningen, Netherlands, Moorlach's family came to the United States when he was four years old. He grew up in the Orange County cities of Cypress and Buena Park. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in business administration from the California State University, Long Beach in 1977. He is a certified public accountant and certified financial planner. Before entering public office, he was vice president of accounting firm Balser, Horowitz, Frank and Wakeling, and the administrative partner of its Costa Mesa office. With his wife, Trina, he has three children.[1]

County Treasurer-Tax Collector

Moorlach first came to public attention by predicting the largest municipal bond portfolio loss and bankruptcy in U.S. history while campaigning for the office of Orange County Treasurer-Tax Collector against incumbent Democrat Robert Citron in 1994. Citron resigned in disgrace later that year and was replaced on an interim basis by Tom Daxon. On March 17, 1995, Moorlach was appointed to fill the vacancy. In 1996 he was elected by the voters to complete the unexpired term, and re-elected in 1998 and 2002, serving nearly twelve years.

He is recognized as a leading expert on municipal bankruptcies. He received phone calls regarding a looming municipal bond crisis in Jefferson County, Alabama.[2]

County Supervisor

In 2006, he opted not to run for re-election as Treasurer-Tax Collector and instead ran for Orange County Supervisor, winning 70% of the vote. Moorlach was unopposed for re-election as Supervisor in 2010.

While on the Board of Supervisors, he served on the Orange County Transportation Authority, OC LAFCO, CalOptima, and Southern California Regional Airport Authority boards.

State Senator

In 2013 Moorlach announced his candidacy for the U.S. House seat being vacated by John Campbell, but dropped out shortly before the close of candidate filing.[3] The Congressional seat would be won by Mimi Walters, who vacated her seat in the State Senate, paving the way for the special election that sent Moorlach to the State Senate.

On the twentieth anniversary of his appointment as Treasurer-Tax Collector, Moorlach won 50.3% of the vote in the special election to succeed Walters, defeating Assemblyman Donald P. Wagner, a fellow Republican who won 44.0% of the vote.
