I watched the entire thing.

It was very interesting.

The people who gave their accounts were excellent.

They were well educated and specialists in their fields.

It surprised the panel of lawmakers.

The panel didn't sound very interested in making any changes

or correcting anything.

That's OK, on my own I scanned to the point where the issue was presented.

For those interested, start viewing at about 24:30. I agree with the author of the article "There’s no way to know how egregious the errors in the machine count and their purported audit were without further investigation and research." I can't comment further, there's not enough evidence to suggest much of anything other than someone should have filed for a recount since it was stated that the 5% audit is not in itself to be used to change any results.
