Well in my area (as I said earlier) people choose a experimental used tire burning plant (from a startup company) over a nuclear plant (from the power company). Sure some people complained about the used tire burning plant, but nothing was done about it. The Nuclear plant however got to picking sites and then the uproar killed the project...
That's without states like California that would have to repeal anti-nuclear laws. Which has been argued about for 3 years as I remember it... So far without success.
