Gotcha.

I don’t know which members aren’t there.
But I believe the lower total number of those in attendance means the threshold for how many votes are needed goes down.
So maybe 217 votes now needed, rather than 218?
Pure speculation on my part.

That's correct as I understand it. Only votes that count toward the total, and therefore count toward the threshold of victory, are votes cast for a person. Those who are there but vote "present" also do not count toward either.
