STORYLINE:
US voters headed to the polls on the day dubbed Super Tuesday, with voting taking place from the Atlantic to Alaska in the biggest day in the presidential nominating race so far.
Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton were fighting for front-runner status in a tightening Democratic contest, while Republican John McCain hoped to bury rival Mitt Romney’s presidential hopes.
Tuesday’s vote is almost a national primary: each party was holding contests in more than 20 states, including some of the most populous, such as New York and California.
