To report political text messages, you can follow these general steps:

Screen Capture:

Take screenshots or make note of the content, including the sender’s information and the message itself.

Check Message for Opt-out Information:

Look for instructions on how to opt out of receiving further messages. Political messages are usually required to provide an opt-out option.

Contact Your Mobile Carrier:

Forward the message to your mobile carrier using the provided spam reporting service. Most carriers have a way to report spam or unwanted messages.

File a Complaint with Regulatory Agencies:

In the United States, you can file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) or the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Provide details about the unwanted messages and any opt-out attempts.

Use the National Do Not Call Registry:

If you are on the National Do Not Call Registry, report the political text message as a violation through the registry’s website.
