For anyone confused as to what's supposed to happen when an officer vacates their position, here's the skinny (yes, the board and officers are following the rules):

(G)(i) In the event of a vacancy in any elected office, which vacancy occurs within the first year after installation of the officer, a special election shall be held to elect a successor to serve the remaining term of such officer. As soon as practicable after such vacancy occurs, the Board shall cause to be sent to each Charter, Regular and Life member in good standing, a call for nominations. Regardless of the manner of mailing, the call for nominations shall be sent within sixty (60) days after the vacancy. The special election shall take place as soon as practicable after close of nominations, by mailing to all Charter, Regular and Life members in good standing.

(ii) In the event of a vacancy in any elected office, which vacancy occurs after the first year following installation of the officer, the President shall appoint a Charter or Regular or Life member in good standing to hold such office until the installation of the officer’s successor. If the vacancy is the Presidency, then the Board shall appoint such interim President from among the then-existing Charter or Regular or Life members in good standing.

There's more stuff surrounding these 2 paragraphs if you need more info. I just grabbed these because they seemed most relevant.
