We will have approx 80 to 90 members attending our business meeting. Is there any way to conduct business without maority as defined in our bylaws.

Situation: Quorum is 8. Quorum was reached and meeting was started. Minutes from the previous meeting were reviewed and a motion was made and seconded to accept the minutes as read. Then one more member appears to make 9 in attendance.

Question: Does the record show that 8 voted to approve and that's it? or 8 to approve with 1 abstention due to non attendance?

Neither. There should not be a vote on approving the minutes (the Chair would declare the minutes approved after all corrections offered are dealt with) and even if there was a vote it doesn't need to be counted unless the Chair or assembly ordered it and even if the votes were counted abstentions are not recorded in the minutes.
