Democrats Take Both Chambers as Data Centre Ballots Pass
Democrats won both chambers of Congress, Texas elected a governor who has pledged to pause data-centre approvals until legislation protects communities, and local pause measures passed on 3 November, with one cited NBC poll putting opposition to a nearby build at 76%. The semiconductor index fell 3.13% to a six-month low. One caution before publication: earlier reporting counted 41 measures with 40 passing, while this account says 43 of 44, and the difference is in both the numerator and the denominator.
