The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) has reportedly alerted top AI firms, privately, about the potential political fallout from the negative public opinion surrounding U.S. data centers.
The NRSC disclosed that the Democrats have successfully made data centers a central issue in their campaign to unseat Sen. Jon Husted (R-Ohio). The Republicans fear that if Husted is defeated and data centers are held responsible, it could discourage politicians across the country from backing future data center projects, Axios reported on Wednesday, citing a memo.
