Yes. In 1997, Governor George W. Bush signed into law a bill that amended the Texas Administrative Code. Title 1, Part 4, Chapter 81, Subchapter B, rule 35 says:(a) A person who meets the eligibility requirements of a voter under the Texas Election Code, Chapter 101, but who will be on a space flight during the early-voting period and on election day, may vote under this chapter. In order to vote by this method, the voter must apply by a Federal Postcard Application ("FPCA") and meet the requisite deadlines under state law. The FPCA may be submitted by fax or other electronic means.(b) The National Aeronautics and Space Administration ("NASA") shall submit in writing to the Secretary of State a method of transmitting and receiving a secret ballot for persons on a space flight during an election period. The Secretary of State shall approve, deny, or request further information from NASA on the proposed method of transmission.(c) Proposed changes to an approved ballot transmission method shall be submitted in writing to the Secretary of State for approval.In 1996, NASA Astronaut John Blaha was aboard the Russian space station Mir during the election. He was not able to exercise his right to vote. The issue was raised to the local state representatives and the bill was in place a year later.If an astronaut is registered to vote and will be in space during the election period, the Harris, Brazoria, or Galveston county clerk (whichever county the astronaut resides) will send an encrypted Adobe Acrobat PDF copy of the ballot to NASA. NASA will send it up the astronaut. The astronaut will fill it in and send it back down (still encrypted) and it will be sent to the county voting officer, who will be able to open the ballot and translate the selections to an actual ballot.

I have this problem sometimes when working with people who don't use LaTeX.What I do is that I compile my LaTeX file into PDF, open the latter in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and then save it as an "extended" PDF file. In the "extended" format, the reader can add comments to and edit the text even if he or she has only Adobe Reader.You will need to have a copy of Adobe Acrobat for this to work. My copy is provided by my employers.
