So, if you are going to quote the Hawaiian Paradise Park Owners Association Bylaws, Amended and Restated, July 22, 2010, then let's discuss this article:
Page 7 of 31
ARTICLE VI – MEMBERSHIP AND VOTING
Section 1. Types of Membership. There shall be two types of membership:
(a) Members. Lot owners of record of the Hawaiian Paradise Park, Increments I and II, hereinafter referred to as "member" or "membership," shall constitute the Association. The owner of any lot upon acquiring title thereto shall automatically become a member of the Association and shall remain a member thereof until such time as ownership ceases for any reason, at which time membership in the Association shall automatically terminate. Lot owners shall include all individuals and entities (partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies, limited liability partnerships, and trusts) holding legal title as tenants-in-severalty, tenants-in-common, joint tenants, or tenants by the entirety. Lot owners may decline membership in writing only, addressed to the HPPOA office. Former members may rejoin Association membership upon receipt of a written statement sent to the HPPOA office. Lot owners declining membership forfeit all voting rights. All lot owners, regardless of Association membership must pay Road Maintenance Assessments and comply with Association bylaws and policies.
Then, lets discuss this article:

ARTICLE VIII – BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Section 1. Number and Qualification. The affairs of the Association shall be governed by a board composed of nine persons, who must be members in good standing. HPPOA employees shall not serve on the board of directors. The directors must be able to attend board and membership meetings in person and serve on committees of the board. They shall serve without compensation or reimbursement of cost incurred as a result of attendance at meetings.
Now, you have stated that the "voting" provision of members versus non-members contained in the published current bylaws of HPPOA to have been overruled by a court order, so, in order to avoid unnecessary delay, lengthy "he said, she said" debate, I think it would not only be very prudent and helpful for you to please post a copy of that purported court order so that the public can see it.
Being a candidate now for the Board of Directors no longer allows you to just respond "do your own research." As a candidate, you now owe it to your constituency to be completely honest, forthcoming and transparent to them.
