What about the other two? If they're far from total, chances are a vote for expansion would not pass. You need a majority of the sororities to approve expansion, and my guess is that at least those two would vote no.
A quick clarification on what shadokat said: If there's a local sorority or interest group that wants to go national, and Panhel knows of its existence before voting for expansion, then the local group, not Panhel, gets to pick the national. So you wouldn't be forced into becoming a colony of XYZ if you really want ABC (provided, of course, that ABC is interested in expansion).
bittebear, I agree with BG, talk to the Panhel officers rather than the representatives.
Why aren't locals allowed? Is it the school administration's decision, or is it that locals can't join Panhel? (The latter is typical - locals usually can't get full voting rights in Panhel, but there is a category called associate membership that's often granted to locals and new colonies.) In any case, you may not be allowed to organize as a local, but hopefully you could still be recognized as an interest group.
Good luck!
