Twitter offers more details on action plan for US election

Twitter Inc on Monday detailed its action plan for the U.S. presidential election as the social network braced for what it called an unusual election due to a high number of mail-in ballots that might cause a delay in final results.

Beginning on election night through the inauguration, Twitter said it would place a warning label on tweets from certain accounts, including those of candidates and campaigns, that claimed victory in advance of official declarations.

Only accounts with over 100,000 followers and a significant engagement will be considered for labeling, Twitter said.
