Democrats in McLean County find themselves in an unusual position heading into this election. For the first time, the party is looking to hold on to power on the county board. McLean County's main governing body had historically been led by Republicans. That is, until 2024, when Democrats won a majority of seats on the 20-member board. Democrats hold 12 seats, all in Bloomington-Normal.

In communities like those in McLean County, a community benefits agreement may either be a tool to hold data centers accountable or a list of empty promises. A community benefits agreement [CBA] is a document which can legally require data centers to commit to the investment of specific projects, programs or upgrades within a community. That can range from something like funding a new building in town to replacing aging water pipes. In the City of Bloomington’s newly released draft regulations, CBAs approved by city council would be a requirement.

No matter what the motivation, with damage totals for the county hitting $42.5 million, or roughly half the damage in the state, it’s the county’s job to keep pushing.
