Telemarketing Center

The Republican Party of Texas (commonly known as the RPT) ran a highly successful telemarketing center from 1994-1998 in the Southwest Tower Building (nicknamed "Telemarketing Tower") at 211 East 7th Street in downtown Austin, Texas. [http://www.downtownaustin.com/business/office/buildings/?name/32] The slogan of "A dime a day to keep the Democrats away" succeeded in bringing in thousands of dollars for the party in the form of $36.50 donations. Most of the telemarketers were University of Texas students and assorted RPT "vagabons". ("Dialing for Dollars the GOP Way" Austin Chronicle July 23, 1996)
