Twitter flags Trump’s tweet as disputed, misleading

Twitter has hidden President Donald Trump's election-related post, flagging it as disputed and may be misleading.

Trump without any evidence on Wednesday claimed that, "We are up BIG, but they are trying to STEAL the Election."

We are up BIG, but they are trying to STEAL the Election. We will never let them do it. Votes cannot be cast after the Polls are closed!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 4, 2020

He also falsely said votes cannot be cast after polls are closed, reported the AP News.

States allow voters to cast ballots if they are in line when polls close. Some states also allow mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day but received later to be counted.

Trump's tweet came after his Democratic challenger, Joe Biden, delivered remarks as the race was too early to call in key battleground states.

Biden told his supporters to be patient while all the votes are counted.

Twitter says placing a warning on the tweet is in line with its "Civic Integrity Policy." The tweet is still visible after clicking through the warning.
