Additional Information

This button by the GOP Shoppe was part of the National Republican Party's platform to encourage voting Republican in US elections. Republicans were most likely attempting to cash-in on the the gains made during the 1994 midterm elections. The platform was mildly successful despite Democrat Bill Clinton's victory over Bob Dole in the 1996 US Presidential election.  Republicans gained three seats in the Senate, strengthening their majority, and held onto their majority in the House even after losing three seats.
