The top Democratic and Republican leaders in the House and Senate will each get a pick, then the four appointed members will pick the fifth member.” Currently, The Commission consists of five members: two Democrats, two Republicans, and one Independent. The Commissioners are: Daniel Elder (REP), Joshua Hall (DEM), James Huntwork (REP), Steven W. Lynn, Chairman (IND), and Andi Minkoff, Vice Chairman (DEM) (info from their website).
