Departmental delegates shall be nominated only by members from the department that the delegate is to represent. Other Union business may be conducted at a nominating meeting.

"No member shall be eligible for nomination or election or office unless he or she has been a member in good standing for the six months immediately prior to the date of the nominating meeting.

"As a condition for being listed on the ballot, each nominated member must sign a statement indicating his or her willingness to serve if elected, and submit such statement to the Recording Secretary within three days following the nominating meeting.
