Republicans fear the opposition to artificial intelligence data centers could cost them Ohio\u2019s hotly-contested Senate race, according to a recent leaked memo. <\/p>\n

The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) expressed its concerns in its Tuesday \u201cOhio Data Center Risk\u201d private memo, first obtained and shared by Axios, that suggested that Democratic campaign rhetoric against data centers may hurt the GOP\u2019s chances of holding Ohio\u2019s Senate seat during the midterms. An NRSC spokesperson confirmed the authenticity of the memo to the Daily Caller News Foundation and mentioned it was sent to AI companies.<\/p>\n

Negative views of data centers pose a problem for Republican Sen. Jon Husted, who previously helped recruit data center projects and is currently running to keep his seat. <\/p>\n

The NRSC memo warned that the issue may rapidly spread nationwide. <\/p>\n

\u201cIf voters\u2019 perceptions of data centers are not fixed quickly, the campaign against them will expand far beyond Ohio,\u201dit stated. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As Husted and former Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown compete for Ohio\u2019s Senate seat in a Nov. 3 special election, the Democrat has made opposition to data centers one of his central issues as the movement opposing such AI centers becomes increasingly popular across the U.S. (RELATED: How Politicians Changed Their Tune On Data Centers) <\/strong><\/p>\n

Husted\u2019s campaign argues that his belief in regulating data centers is a stance Ohioans can get behind. <\/p>\n

\u201cSen. Husted introduced legislation requiring data center companies to pay for the power they use and return excess electricity to the grid \u2014 a commonsense solution that supports America\u2019s growing technology infrastructure while protecting reliable, affordable energy for Ohio families,\u201d Amy Natoce, a Husted campaign spokesperson told the DCNF.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The campaign further claimed Brown is a hypocrite and supports data centers himself.<\/p>\n

\u201cSherrod Brown\u2019s hypocrisy is glaring. After praising data center expansion and vowing \u2018to ensure that our region\u2019s burgeoning logistics hub continues to grow,\u2019 Brown has done an election-year about-face,\u201d Natoce added. \u201cHe had 32 years in Washington to protect ratepayers, but instead sat on his hands \u2014 and now he\u2019s lying to Ohioans about his own record.\u201d<\/p>\n

Natoce added that the data center issue should be tackled at the local level. <\/p>\n

Brown expressed his support for an Ohio data center in May 2015. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis new data center is great news for New Albany and central Ohio,\u201d Brown said, according to a May 29 press release.<\/p>\n

Brown\u2019s campaign called Husted \u201cthe face of data centers in Ohio,\u201d in a July ad.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Brown did not immediately respond to the DCNF\u2019s request for comment. <\/p>\n

OpenAI and Nvidia announced a large data center project in Pike County, Ohio, on Monday. <\/p>\n

Located at the PORTS-Pike Technology Campus, the six-year project anticipates 35,000 construction jobs will be created, OpenAI claimed. Meanwhile, the AI company said it would contribute $40 million for a \u201ccommunity grant fund supporting priorities identified by local residents.\u201d<\/p>\n
