meeting is not held shall be valid only when the number of votes cast by
ballot equals or exceeds the quorum required to be present at a meeting
authorizing the action, and the number of approvals equals or exceeds the
number of votes that would be required to approve the matter at a meeting at
which the total number of votes cast was the same as the number of votes cast
by ballot.
    (4)  All solicitations for votes by written ballot shall:
    (a)  Indicate the number of responses needed to meet the quorum
    requirements;
    (b)  State the percentage of approvals necessary to approve each matter
