Section 401(d) states that officers of intermediate bodies shall be
elected either by secret ballot among the members in good standing or by
labor organization officers representative of such members who have been
elected by secret ballot. The phrase ``officers representative of such
members'' includes delegates who have been elected by secret ballot to
represent labor organizations in intermediate bodies. Such delegates may
therefore participate in the election of officers of intermediate bodies
regardless of whether they are characterized as officers of the labor
organization they represent.
