YouPorn Is Giving U.S. Citizens an X-Rated Reason to Vote

It's not often that a website, let alone a porn site, wants you to leave your screen, but next week, YouPorn will even give you a free membership if you get off your phone and go vote in the next U.S. election of November 5.
Of course, make sure you hold onto your phone, since you will have to snap a selfie with your "I Voted" sticker and submit it to YouPorn in order to get your premium access code personally sent to you by none other than Jedy Vales, YouPorn's CGI brand ambassador.
This past Tuesday, the company announced, "There's no question about how important it is to vote, which is why YouPorn is reminding everyone to get out and do just that on November 5th." YouPorn's users make over 60 million visits to the site annually, and the Los Angeles-based company is one of the most popular adult websites in the world, which means their new incentive to vote will reach an impressive user-pool of potential voters.
YouPorn joins several other major companies encouraging voters to get to the polls with election day deals. In the 2018 general elections, Uber offered free rides to help voters get to and from polling locations, and ShakeShack gave customers free fries, despite questions of whether or not offering free perks for voting actually violates federal law.
If no one else could convince you to vote, maybe YouPorn figures, a "virtually real" influencer can. Whatever your thing is, YouPorn just wants you to vote now and log on later. Read the YouPorn blog post explaining this initiative here, and don't worry — at least that part is safe-for-work.
