    Given that you can’t pass a by-law that contradicts or supersedes state law, and state law says that a poll must be taken if called for, the answer would be no.
    If there is a fear that the superior owner might use their voting power to force decisions on the other owner, solution may be to create a by-law that says any decisions on expenditure over a certain limit, or significant changes to common property, have to have a unanimous vote (having first made sure one owner doesn’t have more than 75 percent of the UEs).
    The other owner needs both votes to get this through but you can assume their desire to make the UEs more fair may not be entirely philanthropic.
