On October 3, Bruce Springsteen joined Dave Grohl and Tom Morello for Power To The People, a protest music festival held at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland. The concert's proceeds went to VoteRiders and HeadCount, and it was streamed live on MS NOW's YouTube channel. Despite being marketed as non-partisan, the event saw Tom Morello reveal that he did not cast a vote for Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election.
This revelation, published by Rolling Stone, sparked surprise among online audiences. Morello, known for his left-wing stances, said he hadn't voted for a Democratic presidential candidate in a long time, criticizing US policy towards Gaza and opposing "corporate Democrat" candidates. He also noted that living in California, a predominantly Democratic state, might not have swayed his vote.
