Note
A regular -s plural that belongs only to the countable uses of the noun. Nominations are things you can count: separate acts of putting someone forward, or the results those acts produce. When the meaning is the process itself, English keeps the singular and treats it as uncountable, as in the nomination of candidates or chosen by nomination. In that sense the plural is not available.
