Serena Williams Supports Obama, But Won’t Vote.
Don’t expect to see Serena Williams lining up at a polling place November 4 because even though the tennis star has expressed support for Democrat Barack Obama, she says her religion prevents her from voting. “I’m a Jehovah’s Witness, so I don’t get involved in politics. We stay neutral. We don’t vote,” she commented recently when asked about the election. “So I’m not going to necessarily go out and vote for him (Obama). I would if it wasn’t for my religion.”
I don’t get how it’s not political to publicly support a candidate?
