Serena (and Venus) Williams Can’t Vote!

Did you know that because the Williams sisters are Jehova’s Witnesses, they are not allowed to involve themselves in political affairs, mainly voting? Serena was quoted as saying:

“I don’t really get involved in political affairs because of the way I was brought up, and, being a Jehovah’s Witness, but it’s exciting to see someone like Barack Obama have a chance to lead one of the world’s biggest nations. It’s good. It makes my heart smile.”

Hey, at least she still supports him! Click here for a little info on why Jehovah’s Witnesses do not vote.
