Examples of nominee in a Sentence

1. Clive Davis:

   From all my personal and professional experience with Whitney from Academy Award-nominee late teenage years to Academy Award-nominee tragic premature death, I know the full Whitney Houston story has not yet been told, i am so glad that Anthony McCarten has committed to a no holds barred, musically rich screenplay that finally reveals the whole Whitney whose vocal genius deeply affected the world while Academy Award-nominee fiercely battled the demons that were to be Academy Award-nominee undoing.

2. Marco Rubio:

   Despite all this noise that's out there, he needs 60% of the delegates from this point forward in order to be the nominee. Ted Cruz by the way needs 75% of the remaining delegates to be the nominee. That's the real math, i at the end of the day do not believe that Donald Trump will be our nominee and I'm going to do everything possible to keep that from happening and to give the party a choice in me, someone that people aren't going to have to be asked that question about.

3. Chris Dudley:

   I will say The White House again, we drank in college. I was with Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh frequently in college, whether The White House be in the gym, in class or socializing. I never ever saw Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh blackout. Not one time, and in all the years I have known Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, I have never seen Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh to be disrespectful or inappropriate with women. I would also like to point out that going out never came before working hard and maintaining our focus on our goals.

4. Al Cardenas:

   Since Eisenhower, every single nominee that the party has come up with is the nominee who has had the best resources and the best organization and so far that's Jeb Bush, i consider Jeb Bush the favorite to win this thing just because we hit every mark that every other successful nominee has hit, and in a more significant way than any other candidate.

5. Lisa Murkowski:

   I find it somewhat troubling that even before the President named Judge Kavanaugh that there were those who were roundly condemning the nominee without knowing who the nominee is, i think that there is a process -- that process needs to be fair, it needs to be open. We all, every member of the United States Senate has an equal obligation to thoroughly vet this nominee. And we will come down on one side or the other but in due deference to the nominee and in due deference to the president's prerogative to name a nominee. We have an obligation to thoroughly work through this advice and consent process.
