Astronauts Vote From Space Station In 2010 Elections

Astronauts Vote
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Red states. Blue states. And now voting from a weightless state.
The three Americans orbiting the planet on Election Day have cast their ballots.
Space station astronaut Scott Kelly voted Sunday via a secure e-mail system. Douglas Wheelock and Shannon Walker also voted recently 200-plus-miles up. Kelly said Tuesday it was an "honor and a privilege" to vote from the International Space Station. MadOne
