I applied thru Chris Van Hollen’s office after your encouragement but received notice last Friday that I did NOT win the lottery.
I didn't, either! Neither did BFF - she applied too. I was surprised that I got the ones from Steny's office, TBH.
In my FB memories from 2017 -it seems like the tickets I got THAT year were from the Inauguration committee and it was something that was sent to me, via Email at first. Maybe because I donated to the campaign. ? I must have entered that way, and then received them in the mail. I don't really remember now, but they were printed/embossed on invitation stationary and everything. Very nice.
I kind of looked at it like - it would be nice to go again, but I've dealt with all the craziness once, so I've already got that experience.
I'll DEFINITELY see more on TV! We saw nothing but the pre-swearing in and swearing in on the Jumbotrons. Everything else we missed. Plus, I was chilled to the bone for hours after I got home from the last DJT Inauguration.
