    While officers of national or international labor organizations or 
of intermediate bodies who have been elected by a vote of the delegates 
to a convention may serve as delegates to conventions of their 
respective labor organizations if the constitution and bylaws so 
provide, they may not vote in officer elections at such conventions 
unless they have also been elected as delegates by a secret ballot vote 
of the members they are to represent. Of course, such officers may 
participate in the convention, i.e., they may preside over the 
convention, be nominated as candidates, or act in other capacities 
permitted under the organization's constitution and bylaws.
