2025 State Nominations Thread

Has anyone from NJ heard back from the senators yet on the interview details? I am in NJ-11, which is ridiculously competitive.

  • Sunday, November 8th
  • Saturday, November 14th
  • Sunday, November 15th
  • Saturday, November 21st (tentative)

NJ-11 is scheduled for Sat Nov 21 although there might be a few on the day prior and some stragglers in December.

Being new to the process, what makes NJ-11 so competitive? Is it the quantity of applicants? Or that the applicants tend to be highly qualified from your area? Are they applying to a particular SA? I realize it isn't usually one particular factor, just curious since you mention it. Good luck BTW!

Thanks! 70 applicants to USMA for NJ-11 congressional nom, which is a lot, plus the kids are smart. Also, we in the district thats one of the richest per capita in the nation, so these parents can afford their children internships, extraordinary opportunities, research programs...so basically everything is at stake here.

Interesting. How did you know the number of applicants to USMA? Do they publish these numbers? Assume you are a NYC suburb? I'm also in a major metro area with families like the one you alluded to. Good luck!

Yah, same question. Wonder what the numbers are for USNA and USAFA. Well good luck to you - sounds like the district is competitive in both quantity and quality.
 
I'm not sure if it makes you feel any better, but I'm in the same boat at the moment. Applied for Rep. Woodall on Oct 3, was hoping to hear something by now. Based on people getting responses from senators already though it seems the due dates vary since mine required their packets by Friday October 30th. I'm not too concerned, I think there's a good chance the just haven't gotten around to it.

Most years in NJ-11, the applicant pool probably goes about 50 or so percent USNA, 30 or so percent USMA and maybe 10 percent USAFA. A few USMMA folks as well. I can't say I've been able to see the mix every year but it is clear that there are more USNA, USMA, and fewer USAFA on a continuing basis. The only JROTC that I know of in the district is Air Force. FWIW, the current congressman is a USNA grad and at least one of the state reps within the district is a USMA grad.
 
PA, DS has interview this week on 11/4 with Scott Perry’s office. He also applied for Presidential and VP noms.

I was told by my CDC of these statistics, so I guess one of the important things is creating a good relationship with your field force rep./BGO/etc. I am about 13 miles away from NYC, so yes, an NYC suburb. USNA tends to be just as competitive as USMA in my district at least. NJ already has 24 LOAs which is pretty ridiculous compared to other states. I guess that's what makes us the most competitive state.
 
Hello,
So as of now I am represented in a certain congressional district. However, I just found out that we will be voting in a new district this election. I didn’t realize this and applied to my original district who I am currently represented by, not the one I will be represented by after the election. Did I apply to the proper representative?

thanks in advance
 
whomever you were under at time of application should apply
 
Has anyone recieved information from VA senators?
