Let's try to keep this short and simple. If we think too long, this can get away from us. First, there are lots of extremely wealthy people who consider themselves Democrats. Hollywood types and familes that have transfered wealth. Consider Nancy Pelosi, their agenda is motivated by guilt of wealth and believe they have too much and there are many that have too little so it should be transferred. Due to new mega wealth or inhertting it, they don't need more money nor do they remember who worked hard enough/took risk to obtain the wealth. Nothing persoanl against these types, but these are the true reasons. Second, those who need help adn who mostly don't care if somoen else gives them a break. Initially, these citizens may have had too much pride to accept help from the government but over time it got easier to accpet help and generations teaching idndependence slipped away one justification at a time. So, that leaves those who can benefit from liberal policy or special interests. Of the middle class it's made up of union members plus non-union members who'd secretly prefer and benefit from conservative economic plocy but can't tolerate the social issues supported by conservatives. Then add trial lawyers....those guys on the billboards who if they're honest , would agree too many people went to law school, so they have to eat too...right?

There is a myth (which may have been true at one time) that Democrats get more votes from lower and middle class voters, since they tend to be more in need of assistance from the government, and believe in so-called "entitlement programs." Many Democratic voters have also been members of unions (although as union membership has decreased, that segment is not as large as it once was), and many have tended to be more liberal on social issues such as women's rights or civil rights.

But in the 2012 election, Democratic voters spanned a wide spectrum of voters: the Democratic party captured large majorities of Hispanic-Americans, Asian-Americans, and African-Americans. The party also was dominant with single women, and did well with college educated people, as well as young adults. In a changing America, Democrats have successfully reached out to ethnic minorities, and the party's support for moderate positions on social issues like access to Birth Control, access to health care, and the Dream Act have played well with these voting groups. Many people who support the Democratic party also continue to agree with its stance on the role of government. (It should be noted that not every Democrat agrees with the president on every issue; there are conservative Democrats, Democrats who are far-left, Democrats who are centrist. But most Democrats disagree with the view that government is the problem; rather, they believe that government can and should play a role in improving society.)

In most states in the United States a primary is a party election that is dedicated to determining that particular party's candidates. For example in the Democratic Party primary only Democrats can vote for their party. During the general election anybody can vote for any candidate.

In the United States states play a very important role in political party mechanics. All political parties operate under the same laws as determined by the state's legislature. The states determine the voter registration rules. In some states being registered to vote is easy in other states it is a more difficult process. Usually, if you are 18 years old or older and not in jail or in a mental health facility you can register to vote.
