Order of Succession

If the office of President becomes vacant the VP becomes President (and any lower ranking VPs move up) unless the bylaws say otherwise (RONR p. 575 ll. 9-17). There is no other line of succession. If the President is absent at the Board (or any other) meeting the VP would preside and if the VP is also absent the Secretary (or another member if the Secretary is also not there) would call the meeting to order and preside over the election of a Chair pro tem who would preside for that session unless the P or VP arrives or the assembly decides to elect a new Chair pro tem (RONR pp. 452-453).

What is the order of succession according to Robert's Rules and where is it found in Robts Rules? If office of President and President-Elect is vacant, what happens to board?

What happens to the board? They carry on. The VP becomes Prez, you have vacancies in the VP and Prez-Elect office, and you fill them.

How did those two positions become vacant?
