在南北战争中,南方的聯盟國不允許政黨政治的出現,但黨派紛爭在北方仍然相當常見。戰爭爆發後,道格拉斯曾試圖重整北方民主黨人支持聯邦,但他在1861年6月去世,而民主黨內部對戰爭的意見分歧,使林肯得以主導戰爭,不過1862年國會選舉中民主黨依然維持一定表現。到了1864年總統選舉時民主黨所提名的主戰派總統候選人喬治·麥克萊倫與主和派副總統候選人喬治·彭德爾頓(英语:George H. Pendleton)不合,結果大多數主戰派民主黨人都投給林肯。1865年內戰結束後不久,林肯遇刺身亡,其副總統安德魯·約翰遜繼任總統,雖然約翰遜是民主黨人,但其政府和國會完全由共和黨控制和支配。在1866年的國會選舉中,共和黨在國會中拿下了三分之二的多數派地位,徹底掌握了國家政策。林肯的接班人尤里西斯·格兰特將軍帶領共和黨在1868年和1872年的選戰中相繼獲得大勝。
1932年的選舉使民主黨在兩院以及各州州長都取得了多數,1934年的選舉更進一步鞏固了多數派地位。1933年的一連串計畫被歷史學家稱為「第一波新政」,第一波新政基本上代表了當時大眾的普遍輿論;羅斯福試著將新政繼續深入推展至商業和勞工、農民和消費者、都市以及農村。然而,到了1934年,羅斯福的政策越來越具爭議性。羅斯福試著將民主黨的支持根基從商業界轉往農民和勞工。新政在根本上是一連串因應經濟艱困時期而產生的政府管制和制度。也是在這個時期,兩個古老的名詞在美國被徹底改變了涵義,「自由派」和「自由主義」開始代表支持新政的立場,而這兩詞的古典涵義則被貼上了「保守派」和「保守主義」的標籤。民主黨內的保守派被新政所激怒,在艾·史密斯的領導下他們於1934年組成了美國自由聯盟(英语:American Liberty League)試圖反擊,但為時已晚。
共和黨執政經過了整整12年後,在1992年,民主黨阿肯色州州長比尔·克林顿成功當選總統。克林頓和卡特一樣,都是來自南方的州份,使他也能成功贏得幾個南方州份。克林顿開始了自從甘迺迪以來第一次的試圖平衡聯邦預算,並且繼續維持當時繁榮成長中的美國經濟。在1994年,美國經濟達到了失業率和通貨膨脹率25年來最低的紀錄。克林頓上任後,推動允許同性戀參軍的不問,不說政策,並且簽下了槍械管制的布萊迪法案(Brady Bill),規定手槍販賣必須一律等候五天,被保守派的批評;他也立法禁止了許多形式的半自動射擊槍械的買賣(到2004年終止)。他的《家庭與醫療假期法案》(Family and Medical Leave Act)則涵蓋了四千萬的美國人口,提供勞工12週的停薪留職假期以照顧小孩或病患。他協助恢復了海地的民主制度,並且積極斡旋以色列和巴勒斯坦的衝突,主導奧斯陸協議同時達成了北爱尔兰史上第一次停火,另外也促成《達頓協議》的簽訂,終結了在南斯拉夫將近四年的戰爭和屠殺。柯林頓在1996年再次當選連任,成為繼富兰克林·德拉诺·罗斯福以來首次成功連任兩屆的民主黨總統。
不過民主黨內也有反墮胎的聲音(Pro-life),一些團體如Democrats for Life,認為婦女只有在生命受到威脅、受強姦後懷孕的情況才可墮胎。一些人認為應該減少墮胎的發生機會、並且至少應使墮胎變得合法。參議員希拉里·克林顿在2005年初便曾說她認為反墮胎人士應該尋找一個爭議的「共通點」來避免不必要的懷孕和墮胎產生[31]。過去反墮胎的保守派民主黨人在黨內有一定的影響力,特別是在南方州分。正是由保守派民主黨人於1976年,在國會通過法案,禁止聯邦政府向婦女支付墮胎費用。
民主黨內也有保守派存在,大多是來自中西部和南部州。過去保守派民主黨一直是黨內的重要力量,在1990年代以前,保守派民主黨一直是制衡自由派民主黨的勢力,並與共和黨形成保守派聯盟(Conservative Coalition)。從1980年代開始,隨著共和黨逐漸控制美國中南部地區,這些保守派民主黨人由於選舉失敗,在黨內影響力減少。1994年後,在聯邦眾議院裡,他們組成了一個稱為藍狗聯盟(Blue Dog Coalition)的組織,結合經濟和社會保守主義的民主黨人;他們大多來自美國南部地區,通常比其他民主黨人更易和共和黨妥協,在部分議題上甚至比中間派的共和黨人更為保守。他們在過去曾經組成團結的投票聯盟,並曾擁有超過四十席的聯邦眾議員實力,一度有能力左右國會立法結果。他們反對醫療改革,與共和黨投反對票,也反對實行嚴格的槍械管制。一些自由派或進步派民主黨人嘲諷藍狗聯盟等民主黨保守派成員是「有名無實的民主黨人」(Democrat In Name Only, DINO),認為他們在許多議題上與共和黨無分別。部分保守派民主黨人後來也轉投共和黨。
近來,反墮胎的民主黨團體和候選人有增加的趨勢。其中有一些候選人反墮胎是出自他們當地州(主要是中南部州分)的民意。民主黨最大的反墮胎團體是「Democrats for Life」。而其他受保守派民主黨人關心的議題包括:人民擁有槍枝的權利、反對以公帑資助婦女墮胎以及對企業主的低稅政策等。保守派民主黨人最後一位山頭,就是西維吉尼亞州參議員曼欽,然曼欽退選後,支持他的力量亦投奔共和黨。讓紅色的西維吉尼亞州徹底回到原本的紅色堡壘。
国会进步核心小组(英语:Congressional Progressive Caucus)(Congressional Progressive Caucus, CPC)是進步左派民主黨人在美國國會的組織。它是民主黨在聯邦眾議院裡最大的派系,雖然目前它還沒有參議院成員。值得一提的是,加州洛杉磯縣選出的華裔聯邦眾議員趙美心便身兼此一黨團副主席。由於受到北歐模式的強烈啟發,進步派人士通常被認為具有類似於社會民主主義的思想。CPC擁護全民健保制度、激進的公平貿易協議、最低生活收入法案、所有勞工組織工會,並發起罷工集體談判權利、撤銷美國愛國法的許多條文、在聯邦政府成立一個「和平部門」(Department of Peace)、同性婚姻合法化、嚴格的選舉籌款改革法案、徹底自伊拉克撤軍、打擊企業犯罪和企業利益、消除貧困、同工同酬、對那些富有的人增加所得稅率、對貧窮的人減少稅率;並且全面增加聯邦政府的福利制度開銷和規模,以便建立一個福利國家。
「民主美國」(Democracy for America, DFA)也是支持進步主義候選人的政治組織,它是由前民主黨主席迪安於參與總統提名競選時所創立的;目前DFA的主席是霍華德·迪安的弟弟詹姆士·迪安(James H. Dean)。DFA反對美國政治光譜上的極右翼,並且宣稱要「從底部做起」改造民主黨。「美國進步派民主黨人」(Progressive Democrats of America)則是另一個在民主黨內抱持進步主義理念的派系,它是由俄亥俄州聯邦眾議員丹尼斯·庫欽奇(Dennis Kucinich)於2004年爭取總統提名時創立的,這個組織被認為是進步主義色彩最濃厚的之一,但它對民主黨的整體影響力並不大。
第一種理論說驢子這一標誌來自競爭激烈、雙方互揭瘡疤的1828年總統選舉,安德鲁·杰克逊的對手佈置了一齣戲劇,將傑克遜描繪為公驢(jackass)以挖苦他,並將他稱為「安德魯·公驢」,然而傑克遜欣然接受了這一暱稱;第二種理論則稱在1870年1月15日,一幅由托马斯·纳斯特(Thomas Nast)畫的政治漫畫出现在《哈泼斯》週刊上,標题为“一只活驴踢一只死狮”(A Live Jackass Kicking a Dead Lion),把民主党标志为“驴”。從此驢便成為民主黨的標誌,而象則成為共和黨的標誌。
《幸福的日子又來了》(Happy Days Are Here Again)則是民主黨的非正式黨歌。這首歌是在富蘭克林·羅斯福於1932年於民主黨代表大會上被提名總統候選人時播放的歌曲,直到今天依然是民主黨非正式的代表歌曲。
