50. When an association has more than one hundred members or carries on business in more than one electoral district, the by-laws may order the division of the members into groups and authorize each group to elect, in the manner determined by by-law, the number of delegates fixed by by-law.
Each delegate shall have one vote, unless the by-laws entitle him to as many votes as there are members in the group he represents.
An absent delegate may be replaced by a substitute designated by the group he represents.
Unless their presence is prohibited by a special by-law, the members other than the delegates or substitutes may attend meetings but shall not vote thereat.
