Greg Abbott.<\/p>\n<p>Some include disclosures that they are paid political advertisements, under a Texas regulation that requires disclaimers on paid social media posts promoting or opposing political candidates. It is one of only two states, along with California, to require such disclosure by campaigns.<\/p>\n<div id=\"_R_2d6j7aq_\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">But The New York Times found that hundreds of other posts commissioned by the campaign, many of them focusing on hot-button issues like data centers, Flock cameras and affordability, do not disclose that they were paid for.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Ms. Hinojosa\u2019s campaign said Texas regulations did not require the disclosures because it had paid a third-party social media firm to oversee the effort and had not approved each post.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Legal experts say the failure to disclose the advertisements might run afoul of the regulations. Both the campaign and the content creators could be on the hook for penalties as high as $4,000 for violating the disclaimer requirement; the state rule, adopted in 2024, doesn\u2019t detail exactly who is liable. The Texas Ethics Commission, which oversees campaigns in the state, did not respond to a query.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">\u201cThere\u2019s no way that holds up to scrutiny,\u201d said Andrew Cates, an elections lawyer in Austin. \u201cIt\u2019s simple: You don\u2019t have to have a disclosure statement on posts if you weren\u2019t paid for it, but if you were, you do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">The lack of disclosures shows how, in a time of rapid technological change, even regulations designed to force politicians to acknowledge paid digital political messaging have had limited effect.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">As an increasing share of the public ignores traditional political advertising, campaigns across the country are pouring millions into efforts to reach potential voters on the internet. But while TV ads, billboards or mailers must, by law, carry disclaimers stating who paid for them, only Texas and California have transparency rules governing political ads on social media. And those laws apply only to statewide and local races, not federal ones.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Texas is home to some of the most hotly contested and expensive campaigns in the nation this campaign cycle, making the murky questions swirling around online transparency particularly salient.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Ms. Hinojosa\u2019s campaign paid a social media marketing firm, Politiclip, $150,000 for \u201cnews clipping services,\u201d according to campaign finance filings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Like other clipping companies, Politiclip recruits large numbers of creators to blast out content, amplifying scripted narratives in a way that appears organic to the algorithms controlling social media feeds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Screenshots of internal Politiclip data reviewed by The New York Times show that it approved more than 550 posts supporting Ms. Hinojosa or opposing Mr. Abbott through the first week of October. Some content creators recruited by the firm were offered a rate of $3 per 1,000 views, the screenshots show.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-large css-hxpw2c e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-1jme789 ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-1y6rqsj e13ogyst0\">Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas.<\/span><span class=\"css-3hmc0r e1z0qqy90\"><span class=\"iqSOia_accessibilityLabel\">Credit&#8230;<\/span><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Kenny Holston\/The New York Times<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Ari Salzberg, who said he founded Politiclip in April, declined to comment, saying he deferred to the campaign on the disclosure issue. Ms. Hinojosa\u2019s campaign director, Amy Friedman, said Politiclip did not consult directly with the campaign on which accounts it recruited or seek its input on the posts it made.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">\u201cWe hired a firm to help grow Gina\u2019s audience and name ID, and had no authorization of the posts in question,\u201d Ms. Friedman said in a statement. The campaign based its reasoning on language in the regulation stating that only content \u201cauthorized by a candidate, an agent of a candidate or a political committee\u201d triggers the disclaimer requirement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Ms. Friedman noted that the campaign had hired a different social media marketing firm to work with a separate set of influencers who posted with \u201cthe campaign\u2019s explicit authorization and approval\u201d and that those creators were asked to include disclaimers noting they were paid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">An Instagram post from a fitness influencer, Benny Porras, who has 265,000 followers on Instagram, <a class=\"css-povzk\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/Dd-CWKjBXbT\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;stkn=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">featured him alongside Ms. Hinojosa<\/a> and included a badge reading, \u201cPaid partnership with ginafortexas,\u201d for example.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Brandon Rottinghaus, a political science professor at the University of Houston, questioned the logic of treating two sets of paid posts so differently. \u201cIf campaigns can avoid transparency requirements by simply hiring outside consultants to run the messaging, it creates an enormous and unintended loophole,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Politiclip\u2019s work has garnered disclosures elsewhere. Content creators recruited by the firm to post in favor of Nithya Raman, a candidate for Los Angeles mayor, have been including disclaimers in their posts, as required by California law. To date, Ms. Raman\u2019s campaign has paid Politiclip $100,000, filings show.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-large css-hxpw2c e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-1jme789 ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-1y6rqsj e13ogyst0\">Nithya Raman, who is running for mayor of Los Angeles. Content creators recruited by Politiclip included disclaimers in their posts.<\/span><span class=\"css-3hmc0r e1z0qqy90\"><span class=\"iqSOia_accessibilityLabel\">Credit&#8230;<\/span><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Ariana Drehsler for The New York Times<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">In July, Politiclip was paid $25,000 by Fighting for Michigan, a super PAC supporting Abdul El-Sayed, then seeking the Democratic nomination for Senate in that state. Creators recruited for that effort also included disclosures on their posts, even though, because it was a federal campaign, there was no legal requirement to do so.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Some of the creators made posts in all three of those races, The Times found. The posts about Ms. Raman and Dr. El-Sayed included disclosures; those about Ms. Hinojosa did not.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">An anonymous account with the handle @askablkman, for example, disclosed being paid by both Fighting for Michigan and Ms. Raman\u2019s campaign when it posted on their behalf. The account, which has 274,000 followers on Instagram, has posted at least 22 times supporting Ms. Hinojosa or critiquing Mr. Abbott. None of those included disclosures.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">The account did not respond to requests for comment, but after The Times sent an inquiry, all 25 posts that it had identified were deleted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Mr. Salzberg did not respond to a query about whether that account was part of Politiclip\u2019s paid campaign.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Republicans in Texas also appear to be benefiting from coordinated social media campaigns, though it is not clear whether they are part of a paid effort and, if so, who is paying them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">The clearest example concerns Ken Paxton, the Republican attorney general, who is running for Senate. In late August, a string of nearly identical posts began popping up on Instagram supporting him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">The posts, which came from a dozen accounts, promoted an effort by Mr. Paxton to <a class=\"css-povzk\" href=\"https:\/\/www.texasattorneygeneral.gov\/news\/releases\/development-potential-sharia-city-kaufman-county-ends-following-investigation-attorney-general-ken\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">shut down a real estate project<\/a> in Kaufman County, near Dallas, funded by a Dubai-based developer. <\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">One of those accounts, which has 1.2 million followers and uses the handle @republicanparty, included a revealing addendum to its caption: \u201c#ad.\u201d The post has been seen more than 57,000 times. A separate post from the same account, one of several identical posts praising an effort by Mr. Paxton to close what it described as a \u201cChinese birth tourism center,\u201d contained the text \u201c#sp\u201d \u2014 short for \u201csponsored,\u201d in social media parlance. That post has 124,000 views.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-large css-hxpw2c e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-1jme789 ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-1y6rqsj e13ogyst0\">Ken Paxton, the Republican attorney general of Texas.<\/span><span class=\"css-3hmc0r e1z0qqy90\"><span class=\"iqSOia_accessibilityLabel\">Credit&#8230;<\/span><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Kenny Holston\/The New York Times<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">The hash tags suggest that the posts were part of a paid and coordinated effort, a possibility underscored by the fact that the account and at least six of the others making the copycat posts backing Mr. Paxton are listed by LLM\/DCW Media, a separate website that offers to place content on 3,000 vetted Instagram pages for a fee.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">There are no federal rules requiring disclosure of paid political content on social media, and Nick Maddux, a spokesman for Mr. Paxton\u2019s campaign, said the campaign had no involvement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">\u201cKen Paxton for Senate is not paying anyone to do with what you are claiming is occurring,\u201d he said, adding that he had no idea who might be behind the posts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">Messages to the @republicanparty account, which notes in its Instagram bio that it \u201cis not the official account for the Republican Party,\u201d went unanswered.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">A number of the accounts that made the pro-Paxton posts about the Dubai-based developer\u2019s real estate deal have also posted in support of Mr. Abbott, as have more than two dozen other accounts that are listed in LLM\/DCW Media\u2019s catalog.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">One account with 1.2 million followers on Instagram posted in support of Mr. Paxton more than 30 times and Mr. Abbott more than 15 times from June through October.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-qhzo1x evys1bk0\">LLM\/DCW Media, which describes itself as \u201cone of Instagram\u2019s largest A.I., tech and business networks,\u201d did not respond to a request for comment. A spokesman for Mr. Abbott\u2019s campaign also did not reply to a query; the governor\u2019s campaign finance filings do not reveal any direct payments to companies that manage social media campaigns.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async
