Nomination Stuck In Voting

I tried bringing this up in the thread about upgrades not working, but it seems my comment was overlooked, so I'll try here instead.
As my post says, I submitted a picnic area as a wayspot on September 28th 2022. It entered voting in early October 2022 and has been stuck 'In Voting' since then. Nominations in this area usually take around a few weeks or so to reach a decision without an upgrade, so to have one in voting for nearly 9 months is very unusual. The other nomination I submitted on that day was reviewed normally and reached a decision in the expected amount of time.
After the recent issue with upgrades was resolved, I attempted to use an upgrade to see if this would unstick my nomination, but after nearly 2 weeks I can see it has obviously had no effect and that something else must be going on with my nomination.
If possible, can someone look into this and both get my nomination unstuck and refund my upgrade, given that the upgrade has had no effect? I can provide more details by DM if needed, but if you have access to my wayfarer profile, you should be able to see it's the only nomination I've submitted containing the word 'picnic'.
I've been told I should tag @NianticAaron

Just thought I'd check in as it's nearly been 3 weeks. I noticed this has been set to 'investigating' now, but is there any update @NianticAaron?
This issue with Upgrades has been fixed. I can see that this nomination has received votes but not enough to reach a decision.
With all due respect, the nomination has been in upgraded status for over a month at this point. A month is the amount of time I would expect a nomination to reach a decision without an upgrade in my local area.
I understand that my nomination needs a certain number of votes, but it's clear that something is preventing it from being voted on if it has been upgraded for a month and still hasn't reached a decision.
I know you are limited in what information you can and cannot provide when it comes to the voting process, but I am wondering if it's at all possible to check the voting log for this nomination and confirm the most recent date that the nomination was last voted on by any reviewer?
Do you have any updates on my issue @NianticAaron ? It's been 3 months since I upgraded this nomination, and nearly 1 year since I submitted it, so I know this is definitely not normal behaviour. My upgrade is clearly not doing anything and the nomination is clearly stuck.
For more context, my most recent nomination was submitted, upgraded and resolved in 4 days.
Upgrades do not guarantee a fixed time frame for resolution. I can see that the nomination in question is Upgraded successfully. Thanks,
@NianThib does 3 months also sound like a reasonable time for an upgraded nomination to be in voting to you? Last time we talked about upgrades taking more than a couple days to resolve, that didn’t sound like the expected behavior that @NianticAaron is claiming it is.
