(WILKES-BARRE/SCRANTON) -

Time's ticking if you want to get out and get registered to vote for Pennsylvania's Democratic Primary next month.

As WBRE’s Jill Konopka explains you only have two days left to sign up or change your party "Are you registered as a democrat or republican?"

This is what Hillary Clinton's campaign calls “March Madness. Scranton Mayor Chris Doherty, "We got to remind people to register, to get out and vote.

Day three in a four day frenzy to register voters for Pennsylvania's Primary April 22. “Yes, I'm putting together some packets. I'm enjoying what I do, I believe in the candidate I support."

Their message; Scranton Mayor Chris Doherty, “Hillary's from Scranton. She's one of our own; we need to drive home the vote for Hillary." Senator Obama backers didn't take the Easter weekend off either. They're busy registering voters. Veronica Green stated, "Because it's important to vote, voting is a good thing to do.”

And working volunteers. Matt LeBlanc is a volunteer from Manhattan, “I saw how amazing it was to be part of the process, and it’s like living social studies class for high school or college." My name's Kathy and this is Carol and we're with the Hillary Clinton campaign"

Both camps trying to sway local voters. “Where’s the big check from Republican to Democrat, alright there we go." It looks like Mary Lesho stands behind at least one of these grassroots campaign.

Lesho told WBRE News, "somebody knocks on the door, its America you have the option to cooperate or not cooperate, so." Don't forget if you want to vote in p-a's primary - you have to be registered by Monday at 4:30pm
