A verdict applies only to the wording shown.

Company claims are shown as stated; they are not findings.

Public statement checked

The FY 2027 adopted budget projects data center revenue at $1.3 billion, representing 40% of the total budget.

Verdict on the wording above: Partially supported

Said by Loudoun County · Virginia

Review scope: County pages and adopted budget summaries read 1 November 2026

Partially supported means the 40% figure fits the adopted General Fund; it does not fit the $5.4 billion the county calls its budget, and the $1.3 billion was not independently confirmed.

Evidence and limits

Evidence limitation: The adopted budget's data center revenue lines (the $1.3 billion figure was not found in the adopted documents read) and which base the county meant by 'total budget'.

What this covers. 6 checked claims so far about projects in Virginia. That is because those are the Virginia claims DataCenterData has checked, not a count of claims or of data centers. Where a state, operator, project or topic shows no checked claim, read it as “not yet checked by DataCenterData”.

What a verdict means. A verdict applies only to the wording shown and the evidence linked on the check date. Where a separate question appears beside a statement checked, the verdict is about that statement, and the question has its own answer. “Unknown” means the reviewed evidence did not establish the point; it never means zero or false.
