Photos: Twitter labels 4 of Donald Trump's tweets 'misleading'

Twitter has labeled four of Donald Trump's tweets 'misleading' since polls closed on Wednesday morning.
Four of Donald Trump's tweets have been labeled 'misleading' by Twitter since polls closed early Wednesday, with the incumbent decrying the vote count and blaming 'surprise ballot dumps' on the evaporation of his overnight lead. Trump took to social media just after 10am ET this morning, proclaiming: 'Last night I was leading, often solidly, in many key States, in almost all instances Democrat run & controlled. 
Facebook has taken similar steps to label misleading or unfounded claims made by Trump in his posts to the platform. Though, rather than eclipsing the post entirely with it's disclaimer as Twitter has often done, instead Facebook has a attached a small message beneath all of his posts, reiterating the 'strict' rules all election officials abide by.
