Regional Adwords targeting all 50 states

Is such a tactic allowed?

I've seen a business using Regional Adwords targeting all of the 50 U.S. states (even though their business is located soley in Texas).

Is this tactic allowed?

Why not?

In my opinion, it seems as though Google is placing a more stringent measure on the "relevancy" issue.

My thinking was that Google would not allow a visitor to be deceived into clicking an Adword simply because shipping may be quicker (considering the company is reportedly in the same state)-- Or something similar to that extent.

I dont believe in this

may be other people here will be able to comment more finely over this as some of them are running good shopping website
