Doesn't this happen to at least one or a couple canidates and it gets quickly dropped as a story?

It's not worth suing if they comply with the cease and desist.

What is more interesting with cases like these, is that the artists pick sides.

Well, yeah.

If a politician that I supported wanted to use some IP of mine and didn't ask beforehand I'd just sign the document after the fact and if a politician that I didn't support did the same I'd send a C&D. If I thought their platform was against everything I stood for I'd make a public show of it.

How else is it supposed to go down?

There isn’t a cause of action because the music is licensed through the venue’s agreements. These stories are just click bait
