## What do you think? Question:

Our 40-unit Georgia condo complex has just lost one of it's five Board members. Our by-laws require 5 members, but we've had no luck finding anyone willing to replace the person who left (due to severe conflict caused by two of the board members). My question: now that we are down, at least for the time being, to four members, and among those four members votes will most likely be split two against two, how are tie votes decided? Our by-laws state the president has an equal vote. My understanding of Robert's Rules is that motions resulting in tie votes are dismissed. Is this correct. Our president wants to be a dictator, and thinks the office of president can do as it pleases.
