Today is the deadline to register to vote in Pa. May primary election

Today is the registration deadline to vote in the May 20 primary election.  In Luzerne County, while primary elections are generally limited to Republicans and Democrats, voters of any affiliation or no affiliation in Nanticoke and Hazleton will be permitted to vote on referendums on the May 20 ballot. Nanticoke voters will vote on a referendum asking if the city’s home rule charter should be amended to eliminate a consecutive, three-term limit for city council members. Hazleton voters will decide if they want to convene a seven-member government study commission to examine the city’s existing structure and, if warranted, draft and recommend a home rule charter.
