Did DS have a nom from your House Rep too? I'm wondering if the Senators are trying not to have duplicates.

Historically, Colorado Senator worked with each other and with reps so that candidates didn’t receive duplicate nominations to the same academy but they could to different academies. At least for some of the competitive districts. My boy only applied to USAFA and the past two years he got Senator Bennets nomination - last year he also got one from his commander in AFROTC so he had two.

I'm not sure the senators worked with CO-4 to keep duplicate noms away. Unsure about other districts though.

He has a nomination from Rep for USNA. He received the USAFA LOA after the Rep interview so we were hoping for Senator nomination but didn't expect it being in competitive Colorado.

Now we wait on USNA to see if he is lucky enough to be offered an appointment there too. Right now he sees himself as a career Navy officer but would be happy in Air Force too. Of course I would love for him to stay in Colorado but that's me being selfish.

This is what has been shared with us/has been our experience with our district (DD is a reapplicant, so two years of observation on this).

If anyone receives a nomination from a representative in Kentucky, AND A NOMINATION from Senator Rand Paul I’d appreciate the info.

DS got a nomination from McConnell. He got a letter from Paul stating that sense he already had a nomination from McConnell that Paul wasn't going to give him one. He got the letter from Paul last week. Never got anything from McConnell but it does show on his portal.

Awesome! I'm a real numbers guy so I like getting a look at the full picture (and who's my competition ;) )

Has anyone heard from Mendez (NJ)?

No. The only indication on this forum or otherwise that Menendez made his nominations was one post on January 10th which advised that a friend's daughter received a nomination from Senator Menendez. I haven't seen any nominations attributed to Senator Booker, but I do know he notified at least some candidates who were not nominated via email. Both NJ Senators used the same panels to interview candidates so candidates only had one interview if they sought nominations from both Senators.

Thank you, heard from Booker but nothing from Mendez yet.
 
I cannot be certain, but I suspect Senator Menendez's nominations probably went out as well except he chose not to notify those not nominated.
 
MY DD has a MOC Competitive Nomination from WA 06, NJROTC Nomination and a WA Senator (Murray) Principal Nomination.
