在2026年中期选举中，人工智能数据中心是超过半数选民关注的重要因素。虽然这并非最关键的议题，但选民们对数据中心的态度已十分明确。
根据CBS新闻出口民调显示，全国范围内及所有参议院竞争选区的绝大多数民众，都反对在自己的社区内建设数据中心。
这种反对立场为民主党候选人带来了优势——绝大多数反对建设数据中心的选民都支持民主党候选人。但多数自认是共和党的选民也表示，反对在本地区新建数据中心，即便他们最终绝大多数都投票支持了共和党候选人。
选民对数据中心的看法与他们对人工智能的整体态度密切相关。
那些认为人工智能弊大于利的选民（占大多数），都反对在本社区建设数据中心。而认为人工智能将造福社会的选民，则更接受建设数据中心的想法。

民主党当选参议员俄亥俄州的谢罗德·布朗、当选得克萨斯州州长的吉娜·伊诺霍萨等候选人，都将数据中心作为竞选的核心议题。
以下是部分州选民对数据中心的态度，在这些州中，城市、郊区和农村地区的民众均以多数票反对新建数据中心。

CBS新闻今年早些时候开展的民调发现，公众反对在本地区建设数据中心的情绪，源于对环境及资源负面影响的担忧。不过，更多民众认为数据中心对当地税收的益处大于弊端。
CBS新闻出口民调于选举日及选举前数周，在全国各投票点对数千名选民进行了采访。以下是此次选民民调的具体实施方式。
随着更多选票被统计，结果将持续更新。

Data centers were not winners in the 2026 elections, CBS News exit polls find
November 6, 2026 / 2:17 PM EST / CBS News
AI data centers were a major factor for over half of voters in the 2026 midterm elections. While they were not the most crucial issue, voters made their opinions on data centers clear.
Big majorities nationally and in all the Senate battlegrounds opposed having one built in their community, according to CBS News exit polls.
This opposition benefited Democratic candidates — most who opposed data centers backed Democrats. But most self-identified Republicans also expressed their resistance to having a new data center in their area too — even as they predominantly voted for Republican candidates.
Views about data centers are connected to voters’ views about AI more broadly.
Those who see AI doing more harm than good (which is most voters) are opposed to data centers in their community. Voters who think AI will help society are more open to having one.

Candidates like Democratic Sen.-elect Sherrod Brown in Ohio and Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa in Texas, among others, made data centers a central part of their campaigns.
Here are voters’ views on data centers in selected states. In each, there was majority opposition to new data centers across urban, suburban and rural areas.

CBS News polling conducted earlier this year found public skepticism about having a data center in their area fueled by perceived negative impacts on the environment and resources. More did, however, think that data centers could be good, rather than bad, for local tax revenue.
The CBS News exit poll interviewed thousands of voters across the country at polling locations on Election Day and in the weeks leading up to Election Day. This is how the voter polling was conducted.
Results will continue to update as more votes are counted.
