Second, could an aide or even his wife have added him and he not known? He's not claiming that, and it certainly wouldn't be a good thing for a man wanting to be governor to not know what his staff or wife is getting him into.
Anybody who has access to a person's login can do things on that person's behalf, but it'd be highly suspect to add him as an admin on a page he wanted nothing to do with.

The group can send him an invite to join, or send him an invite to be an admin, but it is blatantly false that you can be added to groups as a member or an admin without your consent.

TL;DR it's sabotage, or he is an admin for a racist group on FB. He could always have been hacked too, but if someone would go to those lengths they'd probably do more than just add him as an admin for a group.
