Flock cameras, AI-powered license plate readers, are becoming a significant topic in the 2026 midterm elections. Candidates are harnessing public anger over privacy concerns, with Democrats and Republicans alike criticizing the technology. Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Michigan, tied his opponent Mike Rogers to Flock cameras in a viral video. Meanwhile, Democratic House candidates in Ohio and Tennessee are also campaigning against the cameras, joining a bipartisan chorus of opposition. The issue is converging with existing concerns about data centers to make AI a potent campaign topic.
