Twitter will flag Biden or Trump if one prematurely declares election victory

Twitter announced a policy that would flag a tweet from President Trump or Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden if either were to claim victory prematurely in the November election.

The social media platform announced a slew of guidelines on tweets about elections or other civic processes on Thursday that will go into effect later in September, according to a Twitter blog post. They will start labeling or removing “false or misleading information intended to undermine public confidence.”
