So if a quorum for an election is not met and a second election meeting is held, and at this meeting there is less than a quorum present (defined as 40% in declaration), then what should happen? Keep holding election meetings? Make a Board appointment of the only person nominated?

Only one person has been nominated for a board position at our HOA. Our declaration requires a quorum be present to conduct an election at a general meeting. Since only one person has been nominated for the vacant position, as chair can I call for "election by acclamation" despite the fact that there may be less than a quorum at the meeting? All procedures for nominating and announcement of the election meeting have been followed.
