Democratic gubernatorial wins in Texas, Georgia, Ohio and Pennsylvania could expose 50% of proposed US AI data center additions to greater scrutiny and pushback

With new Democratic governors in Texas, Georgia, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, roughly half of proposed US AI data center capacity just moved into higher-friction permitting and community scrutiny.
