Because the name of the party is and for more than a century has been the Democratic Party. The term "Democrat Party" is an intentional mispronunciation of that name, popularized by biased right-wing media including Fox News. No elected official of the Democratic Party, nor any member of its party leadership, has ever referred to "the Democrat Party." For some reason, some opponents of the Democratic Party derive their juvenile jollies from saying the name incorrectly.
