Hill-HarrisX poll finds 32% of registered voters consider themselves to be ‘woke’

Breaking News

Thirty-two percent of voters consider themselves to be “woke,” according to a Hill-HarrisX poll.

While merriam-webster.com defines the term as “aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice),” some on the political right may associate the term with a person who is devoted to radical left-wing views.

When asked whether they viewed themselves as woke to the extent that they understand the term, 32% of registered voters answered in the affirmative, while 23% answered in the negative, 13% were unsure, and 31% did not know what the term means.

The percentage of people identifying as woke varied through different age brackets, with 61% of 18- to 34-year-olds answering yes to the question, compared to 39% of 35- to 49-year-olds, 22% of 50- to 64-year-olds, and 8% of those 65 and older.
