Ramaswamy's data center push faces growing Ohio backlash

Republican gubernatorial nominee Vivek Ramaswamy's vision for Ohio to become a data center hub is meeting significant public opposition, with a Gallup poll showing widespread disapproval of local data centers. A grassroots movement in Adams and Brown counties is gathering signatures for a constitutional amendment to ban large data centers, while at least 15 Ohio communities have already enacted moratoriums.

Ramaswamy wants more data centers in Ohio — and profits from them

Vivek Ramaswamy, a GOP frontrunner for Ohio governor, advocates for more AI data centers and Bitcoin mining operations in the state, despite concerns about rising electricity costs, strained water resources, and limited permanent job creation. His stance is tied to his personal financial interests in cryptocurrency through his company Strive and significant campaign donations from crypto billionaires, while rural communities in Ohio are actively opposing data center expansion through initiatives like a proposed constitutional amendment.
