I was on the board of an Authority when it was discovered that one of the board members hadn't been officially appointed. There was a big fight going on at the time and the director threatened to cancel any and all votes this woman had taken and insist they be redone.

Our lawyer said it didn't work that way. Even if you were put into office via an error, all of the votes you took would still be considered legitimate.
