GameLink Uncovers the Link between Porn and Politics as the Presidential Election Heats Up

By on August 21, 2012

(San Francisco, CA) – GameLink, the leading video-on-demand platform in adult entertainment, is keeping close tabs on the current presidential race, as the controversial topic of pornography creeps into debates, discussions and town hall meetings across America, creating dividing lines between those who support adult entertainment and those who want it strictly enforced or banned.

Presidential candidates Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are fielding questions about their political positions on pornography, and while President Obama has remained fairly quiet on the subject, Republican nominee Romney has made his position clear that “fighting porn will be a top priority” and he will “vigorously crack down on the porn industry”.

GameLink has crunched the numbers on their user data to reveal the porn watching habits of Americans during the 2012 election season. GameLink would like to remind our candidates of the real facts about the personal habits of their American voters, based on internal data:

The US is the top producer of adult videos, with a new title produced every 39 minutes; US consumers account for over half of all online porn revenue that services over 40 million regular customers, a third of them women

Hawaii consumes the most adult video per capita in the US, with our nation’s capital Washington DC close behind at #3 (with black and gay-themed movies as top sellers), while Vermont consumes the least.

Utah residents subscribe to porn sites more than anyone else in the nation (1)

Every SECOND, more than 28,000 internet users watch porn and spend $3,000; 25% of all search engine requests are pornography-related (2)

During the primary elections the #1 selling movie in Florida was Transsexual Babysitters #18

8 out of the top 10 pornography consuming states gave their electoral votes to Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election.

“When looking at user behavior on their VOD platform, we found that the big primary states of California, New York, and Texas are the largest consumers of adult material, consuming more than 9 million minutes of adult video so far during this election season,” said GameLink executive Andrew Sullivan.
