UPDATED INFORMATION ABOUT TONIGHTS DATA CENTER MEETING AT COCHISE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

CoolFM has received the below notice from Tombstone Resources regarding tonight's meeting pertaining to the proposed SpaceX data center next to the Apache Generating Station in Cochise.

Here is the notice:

SpaceX will host a community town hall on Wednesday, November 4, at 6:00 p.m. at Cochise Elementary School to share information about the proposed supercompute project in Cochise County, answer questions, and hear directly from local residents.

Because seating capacity is limited, priority for attendance will be given to residents living closest to the proposed project site, followed by other Cochise County residents.

We recognize the significant community interest in this project and are committed to making the discussion as accessible as possible to the local community, prioritizing opportunities for the residents nearest the project to participate. Our goal is to ensure those most directly impacted have an opportunity to be heard and engaged in the conversation.

We look forward to an informative, respectful, and productive discussion with the community.

ELECTION 2026 UPDATE: SIERRA VISTA MAYORAL RACE — LATEST UNOFFICIAL RESULTS

SIERRA VISTA, AZ — Updated unofficial results from the November 3, 2026, general election show minor changes in the vote totals for Sierra Vista’s mayoral race as Cochise County continues its election reporting process.

According to the latest figures published on the Cochise County election results dashboard, Carolyn Flowers currently has the highest number of votes, followed by Mark Rodriguez and Brandon Martin.

LATEST UNOFFICIAL RESULTS — SIERRA VISTA MAYOR

* Carolyn R. Flowers: 5,122 votes (40.07%)
* Mark Rodriguez: 4,311 votes (33.72%)
* Brandon Martin: 3,310 votes (25.89%)
* Unofficial write-in votes: 28 (0.22%)
* Unassigned write-in votes: 13 (0.10%)

A total of 12,784 votes are currently reflected in the mayoral contest.

Flowers holds an 811-vote lead over Rodriguez, while Martin trails Rodriguez by 1,001 votes.

WHAT HAS CHANGED?

Compared with the previously reported figures, Flowers and Martin have each gained one additional vote, while Rodriguez’s total remains unchanged.

The results dashboard continues to show 17 of 17 Sierra Vista precincts reporting.

However, this does not necessarily mean all eligible ballots have been counted. As previously reported, Cochise County’s second preliminary results upload included verified early ballots and Election Day totals from 8 of the county’s 18 Vote Centers.

Additional ballots may still be processed and included in subsequent updates.

RESULTS REMAIN UNOFFICIAL

The current standings are preliminary and subject to change. The reporting of all precincts does not constitute official certification of the election results.

CoolFMLive will continue monitoring updates from Cochise County election officials and providing the latest information as it becomes available.

Wednesday 11/04/2026- CoolFMLive has learned that SpaceX is the applicant behind the massive data center project proposed near the Willcox Playa and Apache Generating Station in Cochise County.

Residents will have an opportunity to learn more about the proposal and ask questions at this evenings public meeting:

📅 Wednesday, November 4, 2026
⏰ 6:00 PM
📍 Cochise Elementary School Gymnasium
5025 N. Bowie Ave., Cochise, AZ 85606

‼️LIVESTREAM COVERAGE BEGINS WITH A 5PM INTERVIEW WITH DIST 3 SUPERVISOR FRANK ANTENORI ABOUT THE PROPOSED PROJECT

According to application documents it could ultimately grow into a 6-gigawatt data center campus on approximately 747 acres along U.S. Highway 191. This would be the largest of its kind in Arizona.

The proposed campus would include nine computing buildings, each approximately 493,000 square feet, along with electrical infrastructure, cooling and battery yards, and an operations building.

Construction could employ approximately 5,500 workers at its peak. Once fully built, the project is estimated to support approximately 1,000 permanent operations, security, maintenance and contractor positions.

The proposal also describes approximately $3.6 BILLION in applicant-funded transmission and substation improvements in Cochise County through an electric energy services agreement involving the applicant, SSVEC and AEPCO.

According to the application, the facility would use dry cooling with no cooling towers. Estimated water consumption at full build-out is approximately 7 to 10 acre-feet annually, which the application compares to the water use of roughly 20 to 30 Arizona homes.

The proposal states that no new groundwater well would be constructed and groundwater would not be used for industrial purposes.

Because of the project’s proximity to the Willcox Playa, the application also outlines measures intended to address wildlife and bird impacts, including bird-safe glazing, shielded lighting, wildlife-friendly fencing, bird flight diverters on certain overhead lines and environmental monitoring.

IMPORTANT: The information regarding the project’s size, construction, water use, employment, infrastructure and environmental measures reflects what is currently proposed in the submitted application. It does not mean every component has received final approval or will ultimately be constructed as proposed.

CoolFMLive is continuing to gather information regarding SpaceX’s involvement in the project and will provide additional reporting as more details are confirmed.

ELECTION 2026: JOANNA MENDOZA PROJECTED TO WIN ARIZONA’S 6TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT

SOUTHERN ARIZONA — JoAnna Mendoza has been projected as the winner of Arizona’s 6th Congressional District race, defeating Republican incumbent U.S. Representative Juan Ciscomani, according to election projections.

The projection follows Tuesday’s November 3, 2026, general election in a congressional district that includes portions of Cochise, Pima, Pinal, Graham, and Greenlee counties.

Mendoza, a 20-year veteran of the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps, challenged Ciscomani, who was seeking a third term in Congress after first being elected in 2022.

The race drew significant attention because of the district’s closely contested elections in recent years and its potential impact on the balance of power in the U.S. House of Representatives.

ABOUT THE CANDIDATES

JoAnna Mendoza (Democrat): A military veteran who served in both the Navy and Marine Corps, including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. Her campaign emphasized affordability, healthcare access, and representation for Southern Arizona communities.

Juan Ciscomani (Republican): The incumbent congressman, first elected in 2022 and reelected in 2024. His campaign focused on economic issues, tax policy, border security, and his congressional record.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

Although the race has been called by election analysts, the projection is not an official certification of the results.

Election officials will continue processing and counting eligible ballots before the results are formally canvassed and certified.

The outcome will determine who represents Arizona’s 6th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives beginning in January 2027.

CoolFMLive will continue following election developments affecting Cochise County and Southern Arizona as additional information becomes available.

ELECTION 2026: REPORTS PROJECT KATIE HOBBS WINS SECOND TERM AS ARIZONA GOVERNOR

PHOENIX, AZ — Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs, a Democrat, is projected to win a second four-year term following Tuesday’s November 3, 2026, general election, according to a race projection issued by CBS News.

Hobbs faced Republican challenger Andy Biggs, a U.S. congressman representing Arizona’s 5th Congressional District.

CBS News projected Hobbs as the winner Tuesday evening, indicating that she had secured a sufficient electoral advantage to be projected as the winner of the statewide contest.

Hobbs was first elected governor in 2022, defeating Republican Kari Lake in a closely contested election. Before becoming governor, she served as Arizona’s secretary of state and previously held office in the Arizona Legislature.

Biggs, who received President Donald Trump’s endorsement, previously served in the Arizona Legislature before being elected to Congress.

The 2026 election determines who will lead Arizona for the next four years, with the governor overseeing the state’s executive branch and working with the Arizona Legislature on matters including education, public safety, infrastructure, water resources, and the state budget.

IMPORTANT ELECTION UPDATE: The announcement represents a CBS News race projection, not the official certification of election results. Ballot counting and canvassing procedures will continue under Arizona election law before the results become final.

CoolFMLive will continue following statewide and Cochise County election developments as additional results become available.
