Along with the Republicans, data centers also failed in the American midterm elections

In the recent elections in the U.S., voters in several counties rejected initiatives related to data center developments. A total of 33 initiatives limiting data center construction have been approved, with six more showing similar trends. Despite the Trump administration's support for AI development, public sentiment largely opposes data centers. An analysis of 417 municipal hearings revealed significant resistance among Americans. The proposed questions ranged from complete bans to temporary restrictions on data centers. While local officials supporting bans were removed, it's unclear how this will impact ongoing projects, with only three out of over 300 bans affecting current investments.
