  1. Local issues signpost wider salience/ relevance; this from an Axios article re a private (read ‘secret’) memo by the Senate GOP campaign to major AI companies, warning: “toxic views of U.S. data centers are killing the party's chances of holding a vital seat in Ohio.”
    “State of play: Republicans say in the memo, headlined "Ohio Data Center Risk," that it's up to AI companies to improve perceptions of data centers by explaining "who benefits, who pays, and why a community should want one."

    “"Until that happens, the issue will continue to dominate this race…”

    “The bottom line: The memo argues that a [candidate] Husted loss would cause long-lasting damage to AI companies in their push to build data centers nationwide to power future generations of AI.

    “"If voters' perceptions of data centers are not fixed quickly, the campaign against them will expand far beyond Ohio," the party warns.”
