Lucky them that they still got tickets available.

I've got a reply email from one of the Senators from my state saying "I received almost 10,000 requests for less than 400 tickets. Unfortunately, at the time all tickets have been allocated."

It was disappointing. I am now waiting for emails from the other Senator and Representative, hopefully with good news.
