As election misinformation continued to rage online, Facebook Inc FB.O said on Wednesday its post-election ban on political ads would likely last another month, raising concerns from campaigns and groups eager to reach voters for key Georgia Senate races in January.
Facebook, which had announced the ban as part of measures to combat misinformation and other abuses on its site, had previously said it would last about a week but could be extended. Alphabet Inc's Google GOOGL.O also appeared to be sticking with its post-election political ad ban.
