A 1997 Texas law does allow astronauts to vote from space, but they require submission of a form on the ground before the flight. Boeing Starliner astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams didn't expect a mission extension that would keep them on the ISS through February 2025. Will they get the chance to vote in the U.S. general election in November? I have the answer from NASA.
