Extra Time: Showdown in New Hampshire; Oscar snubs and surprises
We take a look at the political showdown in New Hampshire. Plus, the biggest snubs and surprises from the 2024 Oscar nominations.

NEW YORK (WABC) -- The nation's first 2024 presidential primary takes place in New Hampshire, where former President Donald Trump and former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley are vying for votes to become the Republican nominee to take on President Joe Biden in November.

As the last major challenger in Trump's way to the Republican nomination, Haley hopes New Hampshire voters feel so strongly about keeping the former president away from the White House that they turn out to support her in large numbers.

Eyewitness News reporter Morgan Norwood joined Extra Time from Manchester, New Hampshire to report on the latest while Sr. Elections Analyst at FiveThirtyEight Nathaniel Rakich sat with us to break down what this will all mean.

Migrant crisis in New York

As more migrants arrive in New York, they get shuffled between shelters during bitterly cold conditions.

The latest numbers published by the city show there are more than 69,000 asylum seekers in the city's shelter system.

More than 168,500 migrants have come through the city's intake system since spring of 2022.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul recently allocated more than $2 billion to help New York City address the crisis in the five boroughs.

Amid all of that, the city ordered a curfew for nearly 2,000 migrants at four city centers.

We spoke with immigration attorney Renata Castro about the ongoing crisis.

The biggest Oscar snubs and surprises

The countdown to the Oscars has officially begun.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences unveiled the nominations Tuesday morning in Hollywood.

Christopher Nolan's acclaimed "Oppenheimer" leads the way with 13 nominations.

Right behind it is the film "Poor Things" with 11.

Martin Scorsese's "Killers of the Flower Moon" received 10 nods, while the biggest box office success of the year "Barbie" picked up 8 nominations.

But two glaring omissions stood out.

Entertainment reporter Sandy Kenyon looks at the snubs and surprises just 47 days until Hollywood's biggest night.
