What if you do not have a quorum in a condominium?

Depending on the type of quorum required -- owners' quorum or
board quorum -- no business can be conducted legally if the
required quorum is not present or represented.
In extreme cases, best practices dictate that a board contact
its association counsel for advice and guidance about the best
course of action to take when achieving the required quorum is
required in order to conduct business legally, and one cannot be
gathered.

How does hoa elect board members if quorum not met?

Your governing documents define a quorum. For example, it may
state that 'twenty-five percent of the ownership must be present in
person, by proxy, or written ballot' in order to establish a
quorum.
The board's responsibility is to secure the ballots or proxies
or commitments from every owner to appear one way or another in
meetings where a quorum is required.
If a quorum is not met, the meeting must be postponed until such
time as a quorum can be assembled.
If this is the first election for a board, interested owners who
understand association governance can rally themselves and organize
a quorum around members who want to run for director positions.
