Did Resolution to remove Officer actually pass?

When the Richland 2 School Board considered the resolution to oust a Board member from a position as Officer of the Board, did that resolution actually pass? The resolution was not to remove a member (elected official) from the Board - only to remove a Board member from a position as an officer of the Board (Chair, Vice-Chair or Secretary).

At a  Board meeting earlier this year, that resolution failed on a 3-4 vote.

Agostini, Manning and Elkins-Johnson voted for it.
McKie, Holmes, Shadd and Caution-Parker voted against it.

However, McKie and Holmes were not legally members of the Board.

Thus, instead of the vote being 3-4, the true vote was 3-2. Only Shadd and Caution-Parker remained as members of the Board voting against it.

The Board must re-visit every vote since November 13, 2018 that was decided by votes of McKie and Holmes.
