1/ I'm looking for some creative help from the crowd with a little thought experiment. Twitter just announced new rules to preclude unsubstantiated claims of victory in elections and slow the spread of disinfo. But what statements would trigger moderation?forms.gle/x6qx11N7bDgg9x…
2/ Can you imagine a tweet or statement that may walk up to the line of a false claim but may not trigger Twitter to act? Let's collect variations. If I get enough of them of quality to review, I'll put them up for people consider, and maybe Twitter too. forms.gle/x6qx11N7bDgg9x…
3/ Presumably Twitter did some kind of exercise like this internally, or they are preparing to as they train moderators to crack down on offenses from candidates, verified and influencer accounts, and others. forms.gle/x6qx11N7bDgg9x…
4/ Going to tweet some of the responses so far:
The voters have decided! I’m proud to serve you!
Can't believe we did it. Looks like we're ahead.
The polls are closed and it looks like we did it.
Thank you for your support, [ST]! I can't wait to start making this state a better place to live, work, and raise a family.
“Congratulations President Trump!”
The crooked media won't say it but everyone is telling me that I won!
Why doesn't the news media report that I won?
Today was election DAY not election MONTH. But Lyin Biden wants to wait WEEKS so more ballots can be "found." There's no way enough ballots are out there to overturn the tonight's results. WATCH THE POLLS. No "crates of ballots" this time.
I thought concessions were important for democracy? My opponent refuses? What happened to respecting results?
(Got a suggestion? Submit one here): forms.gle/mC2UXdwAisUau9…
All of your hard work paid off!
WE DID IT!
The people have spoken. FOUR MORE YEARS!
Fake News Twitter is trying to censor the real results of the election, but my supporters know the TRUTH!
CNN is trying to falsely call the race for my opponent. Fake news!
My opponent wants an extension to count fraudulent ballots that were BOUGHT AND PAID FOR. I don't think so!
(We're coming up with example tweets a candidate- yeah, maybe Donald Trump- might send on election night or thereabouts to test Twitter's policies. Can you imagine one that might walk right up to the line?) forms.gle/fTjNaFuHpHdsn5…
There's no way the mail-in ballots can take away from this lead!
Results point to a victory!
Tomorrow we start a new day together!
I thought concessions were important for democracy? My opponent refuses? What happened to respecting results?
Mainstream media won't tell you but I will
AMERICA HAS VOTED! I am looking forward to being your president for another 4 years! Lets make america great!
You proved the fake news wrong! No one thought this was possible
Wow. Look at these results. The democrats are going to need to make up a ton fake ballots to steal the election
"Do not wait for our country to descend into chaos. Sleepy Joe should call me now to concede."
Our internal polls show we’ve won Pennsylvania. It’s only a matter of time until Biden concedes.
They say they are waiting to count all the votes, but we know they are trying to cheat.
To all my supporters: get some well-earned sleep! Tomorrow the hard work begins!
My opponent ran a good campaign - at least they tried!
