The Democrats are the party of the relatively more downtrodden. One of the characteristics of the relatively more downtrodden is less knowledge about politics, and less engagement. It's not anything for Democrats to be proud of, but it'll be true so long as the party draws more of the lower class and other marginalized people. However, Democrats also do better among those with graduate degrees than those with merely bachelor's degrees, and they seem to do very well with academics and journalists who are the most informed of all. So the Democrats seem to occupy the two extremes here.
