Although rules vary state by state, it's probably a good idea to bring your I.D. or driver's license as well as proof of current residence (something like a utility bill) if you need to register to vote. You'll also need to be a U.S. citizen and, thanks to the Twenty-sixth Amendment, at least 18 years of age to cast your ballot. 

Unfortunately, people who have have not registered to vote in the states not mentioned above will not be eligible to cast their ballots on Election Day.

And if you needed some extra motivation to go out and cast your ballot, know that you will not be able to access Pornbub if you don't. Yup, that's right, the adult video website announced that only folks who have voted will be able to view their content on Tuesday.

Also, if you haven't been paying attention whatsoever, democracy is kinda in the balance.

Election Day is around the corner and we're here to make sure you give a F**K! So on Nov.3, only those who give a F**K will get a F**K on Pornhub! https://t.co/AiJXb7FkM9 pic.twitter.com/cSVIjMfgxe
