My understanding is that a candidate with an LOA can then be nominated by a MOC and it will not count towards their slate.

correct but it has to be your MOC and he needs to have a vacancy available for a slate. If your congressman doesn’t have a vacancy then he can’t nominate anyone - you then have to go to your senators. Federal law doesn’t address LOA’s - just says the MOC is eligible to submit a slate of 10 candidates for each vacancy.</p>
