From the transcript

On August 13th, a subcommittee of Vice Chair Fields, Representative Kopp, and I, as mentioned, we interviewed Mr. Lundell, and after the interview, we determined that we wanted to move his name forward to the committee to be the State Auditor. I followed through with checking the references that he presented to us, and every one of those references recommended him with flying colors. And I'm glad that we went through that professional process, and now here we are. I'd like to know if there are any other comments from committee members before we move on. Uh, yes, Madam Chair, Andy Josephson.
