Republican Party of Orange County- Treasurer Mark W. Bucher, Esq.

Mark has been actively involved in politics since the 1993 Proposition 174 school choice campaign, when he acted as the volunteer coordinator for Orange County . His observations during that campaign of the power and influence of the unions in our state led him to found the Education Alliance, a group dedicated to assisting school board candidates who are independent of education unions, as well as authoring, qualifying, and chairing Proposition 226, which would have required unions to receive permission to use their members’ dues for political purposes.

Mark also oversaw the qualification of Proposition 22, the Defense of Marriage Initiative, as well as Proposition 38, a school choice initiative.

Mark obtained his undergraduate degree in Mathematics from Biola University , and his Juris Doctorate from Western State University , where he graduated Summa Cum Laude first in his class, and with the additional honor of Valedictorian. Mark lives in Tustin with his wife, Hanne and their 3 children.
