ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Freshly minted University of New Mexico political science graduate Naomie Germain, 22, the reigning Miss New Mexico USA, is vying to become Miss USA.
The contest will be shown live on Fox Channel 2 at 7 p.m. on Sunday and Germain is hoping to secure enough votes to guarantee her a spot among the top 15 contestants that hail from all 50 states.
Voting opened on Tuesday and will continue through 9 p.m. on Saturday, June 4.
Votes can be cast online via vote.missusa.com, by downloading the Miss U app from the iTunes or Google Play stores or through Twitter. Submit a tweet or retweet with #MissUSA and #MissNewMexico. There is a limit of 10 votes per account per day.
Germain’s parents were born in Haiti and met in New York City. They moved to Albuquerque when her father was accepted to the architecture program at UNM. She attended St. Pius High School and has been accepted for an internship with Emerge New Mexico, an organization that trains women to run for political office.
“If you can have the dedication and the belief in yourself that you belong on that stage, then you have what it takes to be the next Miss USA,” Germain said.
