State Nomination Threads - Moderated

Has anyone gotten their nominations from their MOCs? If so, which MOCs?

Specifically, has anyone gotten their nomination from Linda Sanchez CA-38 yet?
 
I've read that for each vacancy at the academy the senators can nominate 10 people. But my senators' staff said each senator can only nominate 10 people PER ACADEMY, vacancy. Which one is correct? Are my senators wrong?

10 people per academy.
 
They can nominate 10 people per vacancy at each academy. They are allowed 5 charged cadets per MOC at any given time at each school. Most years there will only be one vacancy at each academy so there will be 10 people on their slate. If it happens to be a year where they have two vacancies, they can nominate two slates of 10 each.

Does anyone had an interview with Senator Harris or Senator Feinstein? Is this individual or panel interview? How long is the interview? What type of questions do they ask?

Got a letter in the mail yesterday from Sen. Rubio (Florida) indicating that DS did NOT receive a nomination from him on account of having already received one from our representative. Our state is pretty competitive, I've heard.

My son received a similar letter from Rubio's office -deferring to his Congressman's nomination -We are District 3- may I ask what District you all are in?

Ohh this must be a year of one vacancy. Thank you!
 
TX-05 has completed his slates and sent out letters to candidates he has nominated. The nominations have also hit the portal.

Anyone heard from CA Senators Harris and Feinstein yet? I got both of my postcards back, but haven't been contacted.

DS got a postcard back from Feinstein, nothing from Harris. No emails from either.

I got an email from Senator Harris, no email from Feinstein though. Harris is taking only a small number of applicants. No email could mean elimination.

I heard back from Rubio, ended up getting his Nom, heard he has two vacancies at USMA this year.
 
Is there any way of knowing how many vacancies a MOC has? Seems like that should be public/accessible knowledge somehow.
 
I am a junior in HS interested in USNA and I am curious as to when MA applicants interview with MOCs? I have heard that MA is usually late in notifying candidates of their nominations, but I don't know for sure. My congressman is Bill Keating and senators are Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey. Any info on them and any MA news is greatly appreciated!
 
DS has interviews with Virginia Senator Mark Warner and Rep. Bob Goodlatte Va-06. We heard Senator Tim Kaine does not conduct interviews. Both Warner and Goodlatte have two open spots this year. Playing the waiting game now.....
