Twitter Is Adding a Dedicated Reporting Option for Content Aimed at Misleading Voters

It will debut in India and the European Union

Twitter just made it easier for its users to report content aimed at misleading voters, starting with India and the European Union.

There is now a dedicated space within Twitter’s reporting feature for content attempting to undermine the process of registering to vote or otherwise interfering with elections.

Twitter Safety said in a blog post that this new feature will debut in India Thursday, with the EU to follow Monday (April 29), and it will be rolled out for other elections worldwide throughout the rest of 2019.

The 2019 Indian general election is being held in seven phases, from April 11 through May 19, and the EU Parliamentary elections will take place in May.
