Extra Time: Super Tuesday; Hoboken's traffic safety milestone
In this edition of Eyewitness News Extra Time, we begin with the Super Tuesday showdown setting the stage for a rematch in the race for the White House.

NEW YORK (WABC) -- In this edition of Eyewitness News Extra Time, we begin with the Super Tuesday showdown.

Donald Trump and Nikki Haley face off in Republican primaries, and President Biden seeks to shore up support as voters in more than a dozen states head to the polls.

Voters in 16 states and one territory will choose presidential nominees, and for former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, this is likely her last chance to slowdown Trump's march to the GOP nomination.

ABC's Perry Russom joins Extra Time from Washington, D.C. with the more.

Here are the other headlines from Tuesday's show:
