Just as the presidential candidates are crisscrossing the nation in the final day of campaigning, so are the candidates for the USA Senate.

Senator Bob Casey was in the area Monday afternoon, helping to get out the vote and encouraging volunteers at a phone bank.

Senator Casey was here within the past hour at the AFL-CIO, AFSCME Conference Center, along with Auditor General candidate Eugene DePasquale and State Sen. candidate Rob Tepliz working to get out the vote.

The State's Senior Senator was firing up his volunteers, calling many Republicans extremist.

Casey won a seat in the senate over incumbent Rick Santorum by the largest margin of any challenger in 2006, the race was not so lopsided in our area, in Central Pennsylvania Dauphin County was the only counted carried by Casey as Santorum carried all the other counties in our area.

The question is will it be different this year?

“The one big difference will be turn out,” Casey told us.

A lot more people will vote so that might change the dynamic a little bit.

Eugene DePasquale also was on hand to rally the faithful.

Casey's race for re-election doesn't look to be anywhere nearly as much of a landslide as it was in 2006 so the Senator is taking no chances with his campaigning to go well into the night.

The senator was at a rally Monday afternoon with President Clinton in Pittsburgh and will be at another with the former President Monday night in Casey's hometown of Scranton to wrap up the campaign
