Check a video freeWhat triggers it
False or misleading claims about voting or census procedures, requirements, dates or times; false claims that polls are closed, votes won't count, or police are at polling places; or calls to intimidate voters or poll workers.
What X says
“Posts that receive this label will have their reach restricted on X”
How to fix it
Point to the official election authority instead of stating procedures yourself, and remove claims you cannot verify.
Good to know
Political opinions and criticism of candidates are not covered. Watch for procedural claims (vote by text, wrong date, ID rules) that you cannot back with the election authority.
