New Yorkers who received Noms, has anyone had their SA portal checked off and/or gone green yet?

DS has a nom from NY16 for USMA and it is in the portal! So grateful.

DS heard back from Senator Stabenow - MI. No go. Hopeful that someone on here from MI got a positive response from her. Let's go Michigan.

Is the Hagerty nom showing on the USAFA portal yet?

I'm not sure - my DS applied for USMA; however, a letter from Senator Hagerty arrived today saying he did not receive a nomination. We still don't know who TN-61is if Senator Blackburn is TN82!

There is a separate thread for nominations. I suggest you ask this question there.

NJ-05 USMA Received

Kept hearing how competitive NJ-5 is, big congrats!

On the senators, so it sounds like Menendez is out, has anyone heard anything from Booker?

Booker usually releases at the tail end of January. Still waiting on NJ-04 here.

Hello my fellow New Yorkers, my USAFA portal lit up green today, they received my NY-03 nomination, everything completely done, so now with a lot of luck and praying of course, an appointment will hopefully be forthcoming. Best of luck to All!
