Starr County has not been able to produce campaign finance reports, according to one GOP group targeting South Texas this election season. Under state law, counties are required to maintain the reports for candidates for local office.

Sign up for The BriefAll eyes are on South Texas this election season as Texas Republicans try to make new inroads there. The increased attention has spotlighted a concerning campaign issue, according to one GOP group: a lack of publicly available campaign finance reports in Starr County documenting donations and spending for its local elections.

The county did not respond to a request for comment, but Project Red TX provided documentation of its correspondence to The Texas Tribune. The Texas election code says any candidate for a county office must file a campaign treasurer appointment with the county’s clerk to formally establish their candidacy. They then must file regular reports with the county detailing their campaign finances, including their donors and expenses. Candidates for statewide and state legislative offices have to file their reports with the Texas Ethics Commission in Austin.
