Bill Weidemeyer, Superintendent
of House Office Buildings, explains how the lottery will occur.
At one point he said that if any of those present so wished he could
ask the press (to the side of the room; not seen in the photos) to
leave if they had questions that they didn't wish to ask in front of
the media. This prompted some laughs, and none of the
Members-elect took him up on the offer.
