India’s Hindustan Times reports that, during a 14 month period from 2002 to 2003 when the Republican Party was playing up patriotism, its fund-raising and vote-seeking campaign was performed in part by two call centers located in India.
According to the report, the Republican National Committee shipped the India operation its voter database for 125 local staff to use to “solicit political contributions ranging between $5 and $3,000 from thousands of registered Republican voters.” [Source]
