The one thing that did get my attention is he said that the "state" had the BIOS password. Well, in Texas at least, elections are run by each county and the state should have no such access. I'm working and haven't had a chance to watch the video multiple times.
Yep that's another thing, normally (depending on how the whole infrastructure is designed / implemented), you can have two or multiple type of 'password' (access) to the BIOS, standard in professional class notebook and desktops it's a user password and a superuser one, this second that's generally kept by the IT teams, can decide what the other can view, do , etc, and has higher level access (ex can wipe the machine or do other things that the normal user can't do)
