Texas is home to more than 400 data centers, and that number is expected to grow. MS NOW Senior Reporter Josh Einiger spoke with lifelong conservative voters in the Lone Star State who say their frustration with the rapid expansion of data centers is leading them to vote for Democrats. Einiger joins Erielle Reshef with his reporting.

Clarification: One of the data centers featured in this piece is utilized for Bitcoin mining, the others are used for Generative AI.
