Charles W. Colson coordinates with his office staff to urgently secure data regarding the results of the 1972 congressional elections. Colson requests an immediate phone call to Lyndon “Mort” Allin to obtain the net gain or loss of Republican seats. These figures are to be relayed quickly to Manolo Sanchez, presumably for President Nixon's review in the wake of the election.
On November 8, 1972, Charles W. Colson, White House operator, H. R. ("Bob") Haldeman, and unknown person(s) talked on the telephone at an unknown time between 1:35 am and 3:00 am. The White House Telephone taping system captured this recording, which is known as Conversation 033-065 of the White House Tapes.
