This is the first time the social media giant has said President Trump's tweet could be misleading.
Twitter's notification displays a blue exclamation mark underneath the tweets, suggesting readers"get the facts about mail-in ballots".
The social media company had pledged to increase the warning labels under false or misleading information on its site but it has been slow to take steps against the US president.The company updated its policies on warning labels early this month. The move comes on the heels of Twitter's decision not to remove comment President Trump made about the death of Lori Klausutis in 2001. The president has tweeted several messages promoting a conspiracy theory that Ms Klausutis was murdered by MSNBC host Joe Scarborough.The company declined to take down those tweets but told Mr Klausutis it was"deeply sorry" about the pain caused by the president's statements.
