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.
