Nominations

<p>I recevied a nomination from my senator and from my representative (I know, such a tough circumstance). Do I have to decide which one I accept or how does that work?</p>

<p>You might discuss that with your congressman. If he/she has a large pool of competitive candidates, one of them might really appreciate your relinquishing a nomination that you don't really need. Some candidates stack one nomination on top of another and keep them all. That undoubtedly makes life harder for someone else.</p>

<p>Don't do anything. They will decide how to do it. Make no mistake, they talk to each other and whichever nom is used, the other will be freed up. It's not selfish, its confidence. My congressman told me I wouldn't get one because I had the senate nom, so I didn't attend the interview, then they gave one to me anyways. Therefore it must have been a way to ensure my appointment or some other reason I don't know. Either way, its awesome to have both and you should be very proud. See you in 7 or so months. ;)</p>

<p>Um, actually it's 6 months, hornetguy, as of tomorrow. Geesh, get it straight! :)</p>

<p>yes, but until I see you it will be a little over 7. ;)</p>

<p>Touche! ;) Haha, just kidding. Why are you awake at this ungodly hour anyway? :P</p>

<p>I came back from the all academy ball here at home and wasn't tired lol. What's your excuse.</p>
