they will just build where they haven't been rejected, or where locals are more receptive of bribery, token offers of a new park or somesuch, or buyouts on their property

    I read some research showing the average local voter was amenable to a $10k bribe. I think locals should be negotiating for electricity price caps. E.g. 10c/kWh. Anything over that is paid for by the data center owner. This puts money into the pockets of all locals over a long period of time, and insulated them from the demand surge causing price spikes all over the US.
