Firm aims to help 4 million Americans register to vote but calls Trump’s baseless attacks ‘legitimate debate’
Facebook will launch “the largest voting information effort in US history” in the run-up to November’s general
election, the company has said, aiming to help 4 million Americans register to vote with a new voting information centre.
At the same time, Facebookwill not act to prevent
Donald Trump from making false claims about state voting procedures and declare them “fraudulent” – rhetoric that many experts say constitutes a form of voter suppression.
