“#Twitter<\/a> updates action plan to call US election results<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Twitter on Monday outlined a battle plan for the US presidential election as the social network braces for a deluge of mail-in ballots that might cause a delay in final results.<\/p>\n

Beginning on election night through the inauguration, Twitter said it will place a warning label on tweets from certain accounts, including those of candidates and campaigns, that claim victory in advance of official declarations.<\/p>\n

In an updated blog<\/a>, the company said it would consider state election officials and national news<\/a> outlets such as ABC News, Associated Press, CNN and Fox News that have independent election decision desks as official sources for results.<\/p>\n

Their official Twitter accounts will be exempted from labeling, the company said.<\/p>\n

Only accounts with more than 100,000 followers and a significant engagement will be considered for labeling, Twitter said.<\/p>\n

Social media companies are under pressure to combat election-related misinformation and prepare for the possibility of violence or poll place intimidation around the November vote.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
