Could Democrats gain votes from ‘lifelong Republicans’ upset over data centers?

Data center developments are sparking political shifts among rural Texas Republicans, who are now considering supporting Democratic candidates due to concerns over environmental impact, water usage, and local control. This growing opposition has led to community activism, including a lawsuit filed in Granbury over alleged Open Meetings Act violations related to a data center project.

City amends comprehensive plan, addresses data centers

The Granbury City Council approved changes to the city's zoning ordinances and comprehensive plan to allow industrial development, potentially including data centers and power generation facilities, on a 2,100-acre property. This decision overrode the Planning and Zoning Commission's denial and faced strong community opposition due to concerns about environmental impacts and proximity to residential areas.
