42. That was my take too.
Most of the public witnesses were outstanding, but there were a couple that got a bit theatrical. I was concerned that there'd be a few plants that'd go off on some bizarre tract to make the whole hearing look ridiculous....I'm glad that didn't happen.

But ALL of the Democrats should be signing on to this hearing. Democrats best start acting like a real opposition and believe that this election was stolen. Because the next time, it could very well be their seat that'll be gamed.

In the next Congress, they should be refusing to play along with the Republicans until we get bipartisan reform on this most fundemental issue. Do whatever it takes to make the Republicans pay for this criminal behaviour. Refuse role calls for quorums, make every public statement in and out of Congress about election reform. There is no more important business then making sure our vote counts.
