Kamala Harris vows to ‘put in the hard woke’ in verbal slip as she accepts Dems’ nomination

“We know this is going to be a tight race until the very end. We have some hard work ahead of us. We have hard work ahead of us but we like hard work. Hard work is good work,” the Democratic presidential nominee said.

“And with your help this November, we will win — we will, because we’re going to put in the hard woke [sic] over the next 77 days.”

An attendee of the rally said they cringed hearing the slip.

The term “woke” is frequently used by Republican officials to denounce what they view as excessive political correctness.

“You already won!” an attendee shouted back.

“No, we haven’t already won, 77 days of work to do, my friends,” she replied.

Retiring President Biden, 81, regularly made gaffes in his public remarks — though Harris, 59, has not yet developed a reputation for doing so.

Harris, who replaced Biden as the party’s nominee when he announced his retirement July 21, will deliver her nomination acceptance speech Thursday on the final night of the Democratic convention in Chicago.
