TX-HD52: Children in Texas state representative's (R) latest campaign ad aren't hers

For those who did a doubletake watching state Rep. Caroline Harris Davila’s campaign ad this weekend, no, those are not the Davilas’ kids.

The Round Rock Republican on Friday released an ad about protecting kids and improving school lunches, ending with Harris Davila and her husband, Darrell Davila, posing with four children. However, the kids are constituents.

In the ad, Harris Davila says she’s protecting “our future,” and she’s seen patting the smallest of four kids on the back while smiling and talking with the other three.

In the final shot, she picks up that boy while Darrell Davila puts his arm around the second-smallest boy, smiling for the camera.
