I don’t care how much money Google “pledges” to the community or how many jobs it creates, or that a PGA golf course uses more water than entire AWS availability zones, I want raw numbers.

All of these projects outside the handful of insane Gigawatt scale AI data centers (and pre-existing data centers too), do not publish any raw numbers really. Can anyone find out if the upcoming Ohio ballot initiative to ban data centers over 25 MW in size will actually do anything?
