Lots of people just keep saying it is.
Sure, it’s a democracy - a republic is a form of democracy. There’s lots of different brands of democracy. For example, we have a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary government, but still a democracy. What you’ve got hold of over there is a representative democracy.

Uh... Almost. It's a representive republic.
A true democracy only works on small scale. Everyone votes on everything. In a representatve Democracy - the representatives vote on everything - but as we have state governments as well - not all reps vote on all issues - only their own state issues..
