PER CURIAM:

We affirm the judgment of the District Court, see Teamsters for a Democratic Union v. Secretary of Labor, 629 F.Supp. 665 (D.D.C.1986), for the reasons stated in the court’s opinion. As the District Court found, the appellants are essentially challenging delegate eligibility requirements for national conventions to elect union officers under Title IV of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 (the “Act”), 29 U.S.C. §§ 481-483 (1982).
