[DEVELOPING] Voters side against data centers in all but one of 41 local ballot measures
Citing Ballotpedia, CNBC and Scientific American report that voters went against data-center development in all but one of 41 local measures across 10 states; 21 of the measures were in Ohio. Democratic governors-elect in Texas, Georgia and Ohio campaigned on data-center regulation. Scientific American notes Texas holds about a quarter of planned US data-center capacity. This is the political backdrop named for the Nov 5 AI-infrastructure selloff. Results were still unofficial in places, so the next things to track are state-level moratorium proposals and industry responses.
