Debugging an Android user report, I found that Android was hyphenating the words "democrat" and "democrats" incorrectly, as:

de-mo-c-rat
de-moc-rats

While Merriam Webster was recommending:

dem-o-crat

The New Oxford Spelling Dictionary recommends:

  demo-crat

But it also recommends

  dem|oc¦ra|tise

where | indicates a primary hyphenation point and ¦ a secondary hyphenation point.

But I guess this makes sense, since it is consistent with the way the words are pronounced.
