“I’ve seen how power works in this country, they love it when you do nothing. A no vote is an agreement and makes it easier for them to do what suits them (…). These elections are about your life. Make them pay attention to you. “That’s your power!” added Lopez also called for early voting, which in Nevada will end this Friday.
“All of you in Las Vegas, and all of you who are watching us in the United States, have the power! Go out and vote!” said the Maná drummer.

Harris also spoke about their commitment to guarantee abortion in the countryone of the central themes of his campaign, and accused Trump of not respecting “women’s freedom.”
