The Democratic Party is one of the two major United States political parties. The Party is currently (as of 2005) the minority in both the Senate and the House of Representatives, as well as in governorships and state legislative seats, leading some within the party to label it an Opposition Party. [1] Of the two major U.S. parties, the Democratic Party is a liberal party to the left of the Republican Party, though its politics are not as consistently leftist as the traditional social democratic and labor parties in much of the rest of the world.
