With local government elections coming up in our area, I have seen many posters and flyers telling people to "Nominate for election" meaning "Stand for election". Am wondering if anyone else has seen nominate used like this? I always thought you had to nominate someone, not just "nominate" as in "nominate oneself".Grumpy oldie (talk) 04:48, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
