UPDATE NOV. 3: With the election too close to call, results could take days...or even weeks. It's critically important that Facebook immediately take these simple steps to prevent the platform from being used to incite violence. Add your name to this international call.

Violent extremists are using Facebook to intimidate voters and rally support for an armed revolt if Trump doesn't win the election.

With the final result expected to take weeks, it's a recipe for disaster -- but we have a plan.

Civil society groups around the world are joining together asking Facebook to take simple steps to prevent an election disaster -- like banning ads and other content that incites violence. It could take away these extremists' ability to create chaos. Will you join us?

Last time this big a coalition of groups came together, they created the Stop Hate for Profit movement calling on companies to boycott Facebook ads. That effort got massive media attention, brought Facebook to the bargaining table, and sparked a global conversation about platform responsibility for hateful and violent content.

And Facebook continues to back down under enormous public pressure -- just this week, they took down a network of inauthentic accounts posting US political content after an outside investigation.

With just days until the election and Facebook still being used to spread lies, delegitimize election results, and even stoke violence -- we need to dial up the pressure more than ever.

A few straightforward, unbiased tweaks -- like demoting the top fake news super-spreader groups, and hiring more content moderators -- is not too much to ask. Join the international call demanding Mark Zuckerberg do *right now* what he's promised for so long -- and clean up Facebook's act!

TO: Facebook

We call on you to #DoYourJob and ensure the platform is not used to incite violence or undermine the US election outcome both before Election Day and beyond, by: banning events, groups, paid ads, and organic content that incites violence; pausing group recommendations until election results are certified; demoting the top 100 fake news super-spreader groups; and hiring, supporting, and adequately training more in-house content moderators.
