demócratas o Demócratas?
republicanos o Republicanos?
Also, if someone could tell me about the masculine/feminine aspect of those words, that would be nice.
Thanks!

You use lower case if you are referring to people: "Casi todos en esa ciudada son demócratas".
You use upper case if the word is part of the name of the political party: "El Partido Demócrata".

I'm not sure if they should be lower or upper case but they're both definitely masculine even "demócrata" which ends in 'a': "Soy demócrata," regardless of whether I'm a male or a female.
