Hi Galiana,
Your state laws should give you some guidance on this. For instance, in Florida, Section 617.0808 of the Florida Not For Profit Corporation Act should help. Here’s a link to that section: http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=0600-0699/0617/Sections/0617.0808.html
Your governing documents — specifically your bylaws — should also tell you how to remove board directors and elect new ones. You might need to call a special meeting for this special election.
Hope this helps.
