Even at low voltages, electricity can in fact travel through a perfect vacuum. At low voltages though electrons flow invisible. A vacuum arc can occur if the electric field is sufficient to cause field electron emission.
Can lightning travel in a vacuum?
Lightning as we know it in air cannot happen in vacuum because lightening depends crucially on the generation of positive ions and negative electrons by ionization of molecules of the air in high electric fields (and eventually high temperatures) and the ensuing impact ionization typical for a gas discharge.
