尽管美国科技公司正为人工智能主导地位展开角逐，最新的福克斯全国民调显示，选民正叫停数据中心项目：更多人倾向于先花时间解决当地顾虑，而非为保持全球竞争优势而急于扩张。
以40个百分点的优势，选民反对在本地区建设支持人工智能的数据中心（30%支持，70%反对。
“让美国再次伟大（MAGA）支持者（46%支持）和共和党男性选民（45%）是最支持建设数据中心的群体，而拥有大学学历的白人女性（84%反对）和自由派选民（80%）则是最反对的群体。

在支持建设数据中心的受访者中，60%的人将经济益处作为支持理由，包括就业、经济增长、社区投资和税收收入。另有21%的人指出技术益处，称数据中心对未来发展有用、必要或重要。仅有2%的人表示，领先竞争对手是支持数据中心建设的主要原因。
反对建设数据中心的受访者则强调另一系列考量因素。半数（50%）表示环境问题是他们主要担忧的问题，包括能源和水资源消耗、污染、噪音以及整体环境影响，而提及生活质量问题（14%）、经济影响（11%）或单纯对人工智能持负面看法（11%）的人要少得多。

尽管数据中心整体不受欢迎，但人们对人工智能技术本身的看法没那么负面。总体而言，45%的人对人工智能持正面看法，54%持负面看法，差距为9个百分点。今年4月的差距为11个百分点。
MAGA共和党人（55%正面评价）、拥有研究生学历的选民（52%）、保守派（50%）和男性选民（49%）对人工智能的正面评价高于民主党人（41%）、没有大学学历的选民（43%）、自由派（37%）和女性选民（40%）。
近八成选民希望放缓数据中心建设，以解决环境和社区顾虑，两成选民支持尽快建设数据中心，以保持对中国和其他国家的竞争优势。

尽管所有群体大多都更倾向于放缓数据中心的缓慢采用，但MAGA共和党人（36%）和极保守派选民（35%）最有可能优先考虑快速扩张以保持国际竞争力。
人工智能不会在30岁以下群体中找到盟友
尽管年轻选民通常被认为更精通技术，但这并未转化为对人工智能的积极看法。
30岁以下的选民对人工智能持正面看法的比例最低，为38%，而30至44岁选民的这一比例为48%，45岁及以上选民为44%。

无论对人工智能的看法存在何种差异，各代人对数据中心的态度都相当一致。每个年龄组中约有七成反对建设数据中心，约八成选民希望放缓建设速度以解决环境和当地顾虑。
本次民调于2026年7月17日至20日进行，由Beacon Research（民主党民调机构）和Shaw & Company Research（共和党民调机构）主导，福克斯新闻民调随机从全国选民档案中选取1003名登记选民作为样本。受访者通过固定电话（70人）、手机（681人）接受现场采访，或在收到短信后在线完成调查（252人）。基于全样本的抽样误差为±3个百分点。本次民调额外抽取了200名18至29岁的选民，使该子群体的样本规模达到350人（±5个百分点）。子群体结果的抽样误差更高。除抽样误差外，问题措辞和顺序可能影响民调结果。通常会对年龄、种族、教育程度和地区变量进行加权，以确保人口结构符合登记选民群体的代表性。权重目标的制定依据包括最新的美国社区调查、福克斯新闻选民分析和选民档案数据。

While U.S. tech companies race for AI dominance, the latest Fox News nationwide survey finds voters hitting the brakes on data centers, as more prefer taking time to address local concerns than rushing expansion to maintain a competitive global edge.
By a 40-point margin, voters oppose building data centers in their area to support artificial intelligence (30% favor, 70% oppose).
MAGA supporters (46% favor) and Republican men (45%) are the groups most likely to favor data centers, while White women with a college degree (84% oppose) and liberal voters (80%) are the most opposed.
FOX NEWS POLL: VOTERS WANT MAJOR CHANGE AMID ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL DISCONTENT

Among those favoring data centers, 60% cite economic benefits, including jobs, economic growth, community investment, and tax revenue as the reason for their support. Another 21% point to technological benefits, saying the centers are useful, necessary, or important for future progress. Just 2% say staying ahead of competitors is the primary reason for their support.
Those opposing data centers emphasize a different set of considerations. Half (50%) say environmental issues are their main concern, including energy and water use, pollution, noise, and overall environmental impact, while far fewer mention quality-of-life concerns (14%), economic effects (11%), or simply having a negative view of AI (11%).
FOX NEWS POLL: SIGNIFICANT SUPPORT FOR BOTH VOTER ID LAWS AND MAIL-IN BALLOTS
Made with Flourish•Create a chart
While data centers are broadly unpopular, views of artificial intelligence technology itself are somewhat less negative. Overall, 45% view AI favorably versus 54% unfavorably, underwater by 9 points. In April, it was -11 points.
Positive views of AI are higher among MAGA Republicans (55% favorable), voters with graduate degrees (52%), conservatives (50%), and men (49%) than among Democrats (41%), those without a college degree (43%), liberals (37%), and women (40%).
Nearly 8 in 10 voters prefer slower data center construction to address environmental and community concerns, while 2 in 10 favor building them as quickly as possible to maintain a competitive advantage over China and other countries.

While majorities across the board prefer the slow adoption of the centers, MAGA Republicans (36%) and very conservatives (35%) are the most likely to prioritize rapid expansion to maintain international competitiveness.
AI won’t find an ally in the under 30 crowd
Although younger voters are often viewed as more tech-savvy, that does not translate into warm views of artificial intelligence.
Voters under age 30 are the least likely to view AI favorably, at 38%, compared with 48% of those ages 30-44 and 44% of those 45 and over.

Regardless of differences in views of AI, attitudes toward data centers are pretty consistent across generations. Roughly 7 in 10 in every age group oppose building data centers, and about 8 in 10 prefer slowing construction to address environmental and local concerns.
Conducted July 17–20, 2026, under the direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R), this Fox News survey includes interviews with a sample of 1,003 registered voters randomly selected from a national voter file. Respondents spoke with live interviewers on landlines (70) and cellphones (681) or completed the survey online after receiving a text (252). Results based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of ±3 percentage points. The survey includes an oversample of 200 voters aged 18–29, bringing the sample size for that subgroup to 350 (±5). Sampling error for results among subgroups is higher. In addition to sampling errors, question wording and order can influence results. Weights are generally applied to age, race, education, and area variables to ensure the demographics are representative of the registered voter population. Sources for developing weight targets include the most recent American Community Survey, Fox News Voter Analysis, and voter file data.
