No one can vote via text message. No one can vote via Twitter. 。

That, however, hasn't stopped anti-Clinton Twitter users from trying to spread misinformation to Clinton supporters with well-crafted ads that look like they come straight from Hillary For America.。

"Avoid the line," read some of the fake ads. "Text 'Hillary' to 59925."。

Many of them appear to have been removed after Twitter user mcnees highlighted the ads and Twitter's response to them in a few tweets of his own. 。

For what it's worth, anyone who texts "Hillary" to 59925 will quickly be greeted with a message that makes it clear they have not just voted.。

When we did it, we got this reply:。

"The ad you saw was not approved by iVisionMobile OR Hillary For America in any way. To opt-in to the real HFA list, text HFA to 47246. Reply STOP to cancel." 。

Though that attempt at voter suppression seems to have been short-lived and not well planned, the Republican National Committee and the campaign of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump have both been accused of trying to suppress minority voters, who generally vote for Democratic candidates. They are accused of doing this through intimidation. 。

The United Hispanic Council filed a complaint with the Department of Justice late last month, alleging that a GOP investigation into voter fraud was being used to intimidate elderly voters.。

The Democratic Party is suing the state Republican parties of Arizona, Nevada, Ohio and Pennsylvania, accusing them of threatening minority voters there. 。

Trump himself has called for his supporters to make their presence known at polling stations on Election Day. 。

To actually vote, make sure you are registered or that you can still register. Then, make sure you know the location of your polling station for Election Day on Nov. 8.  。TopicsTwitterHillary Clinton 。TopicsTwitterHillary Clinton。
