English

The recent midterm elections have intensified the political debate over data centers in the U.S., with voters expressing significant concern about their impact on local communities and the environment. Democrats' control of Congress may lead to new regulations limiting data center construction and addressing community concerns, particularly in states like Ohio and Texas, where local opposition has emerged against proposed projects.
