    he’s probably going to quell some of the enthusiasm young voters are showing for Harris.

    There are a lot of younger voters who fondly remember all of the amazing science outreach that Scott Kelly (Mark’s twin brother who is also an astronaut) did during his year long mission on the ISS. If anything, I’d wager that younger voters are more aware of the Kelly’s than older voters — and are more likely to get excited about a NASA astronaut than some Midwestern governor they’ve only vaguely heard of.
