American voters approved 43 of 44 local ballot measures restricting data-center development, with many receiving more than 70% support. The measures include bans, moratoria, and power-use limits, reflecting growing resistance to the expansion of these facilities and concerns about electricity and water consumption. Ohio, Maine, Kansas, Wisconsin, and North Dakota were among the states concerned, while a single North Dakota measure favored development. Their legal force ranges from binding bans to advisory votes, and the outcome may increase pressure to adopt similar restrictions in other states, particularly Louisiana.
