It looks like the political full-court press ahead of the midterms has gotten on Movies | Movies free | Movies latest 2022the nerves of some voters deep in the heart of Texas who've filed a suit against Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Beto O'Rourke over text alerts.
A class-action lawsuit filed by a Collin County, Texas resident claims he's been inundated with "Beto For Texas" texts that violate the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCP Act,) because he never gave the campaign permission to send him those messages.

That, the lawsuit claims, proves the campaign is using automated messaging, which the TCP Act forbids.

If you're wondering if such texts and calls are banned under the "Do Not Call" list, well, they aren't, as politicians and campaigns are exempt from that particular law.
As for Beto, who's in a tight, closely followed race against incumbent senator and spoiled jar of mayonnaise Ted Cruz, his campaign manager Chris Evans denied the accusations and told Mashable, "Our grassroots volunteer program with thousands of Texans canvassing, phone banking, texting, and organizing is the largest this state has seen. It is fully compliant with the law."
Back in September, the campaign said an "impostor" was responsible for sending out texts allegedly on behalf of the campaign trying to get undocumented migrants to cast votes in the upcoming election and asking for opinions on the dangers of socialism.
It all goes to show that, despite the rise of new technology, old campaign tricks don't change and neither do the debates over those tricks.
