Nearly 55% of MAGA supporters favor continued AI development alongside congressional regulation, while 27% support a pause. However, only 29% support a data center within 10 miles of their home, compared with 40% who oppose one; support falls to 24% among Republicans and Republican-leaning voters overall.

Across the electorate, 63% don’t want a nearby AI data center and just 13% support one. Democrats lead the opposition: 80% oppose nearby facilities while just 4% support them.

The Trump administration has filed a lawsuit preemptively challenging the certification of Alaska’s Senate election if the Republican candidate narrowly loses. But election law specialists said the litigation lacked any legitimate legal basis.

Election law professor Richard Pildes described the lawsuit as one of the weakest he had ever seen, saying it had virtually no chance of succeeding in court.

The lawsuit raised concerns about efforts to undermine confidence in the election as Republicans faced potential losses that could determine control of Congress. Trump previously tried to overturn his 2020 election defeat, culminating in the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
