Bruce Springsteen Endorses El-Sayed for US Senate
Springsteen backed El-Sayed on social media and called him a fighter for democracy as the Democrat faces Mike Rogers before Tuesday's vote.
On Monday, musician Bruce Springsteen endorsed Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed for Michigan Senate, calling him a "fighter against the corrupt, lawless, and anti-American leadership" in the White House.
Democratic infighting intensified after Rep. Haley Stevens, who lost to El-Sayed in the primary, endorsed Republican nominee Mike Rogers following a falling-out over Israel.
Trump repeatedly attacked El-Sayed as a "violent jihadist" while celebrating the Democratic division, urging voters to reject the candidate.
With the election occurring tomorrow, Springsteen's high-profile endorsement adds momentum to the tightening Michigan Senate race between El-Sayed and Rogers, potentially influencing U.S. Senate control.
Currently on his 'Land of Hopes and Dreams' tour, Springsteen has utilized his platform to criticize the Trump administration, recently calling it a "reckless and treasonous administration.
