It was the data center election after all.
In 2026, we witnessed a stunning, rapid turn in public opinion against data centers. A practical non-issue as early as last year turned into a high-salience moral panic, as voters everywhere said they did not want a data center in their backyard.
As the midterms approached, many commenters (including this one) argued that the data center backlash was also helping to give Democrats an edge in places like Texas.
