Reuters, Carlos Barria]Twitter TWTR.N and Facebook FB.O late on Monday both flagged posts by President Donald Trump that claimed a U.S. Supreme Court decision on mail-in voting in Pennsylvania would lead to "rampant" fraud and was "very dangerous." Twitter has labeled or put warnings on tweets from Trump multiple times this year for violating its rules. The Election Integrity Partnership, who tweeted that Twitter took action about 40 minutes after Trump’s tweet was sent, said would “be wise” to pick up the pace. The U.S. Supreme Court last week allowed extended deadlines for receiving mail-in ballots in Tuesday’s election in Pennsylvania and North Carolina, states pivotal to Trump’s re-election chances. Facebook also labeled a Fox News video posted by Trump in which he talked about “cheating” in Pennsylvania with the same message.
