We're the only fraternity I know of that does not have chapter delegates. We are divided into provinces (maybe an average of five or six chapters per province), each of which has a province governor -- an alum appointed by the national president with the National Executive Committee's ratification -- and a collegiate province representative (CPR) -- elected by the collegiate members of the province. The CPRs have a national council, the chairman of which sit on the National Executive Committee, together with the national officers, the chairman of the Province Governors' Council, and two committeemen-at-large.

With that background, the voting delegates to our triennial National Assembly are the National Executive Committee members, the province governors and the CPRs, each of whom has one vote. (CPRs and Province Governors on the NEC have only one vote apiece.)

BTW, National Assembly starts the day after tomorrow in Washington, DC. Anyone near the Capitol around noon to one on Friday should check out the Upper Senate Park for the Convention Step-Sing. (Pretty much what it sounds like -- standing on the steps or somewhere else public and singing.)
