Welcome to the Financial Times’s live coverage of Super Tuesday, perhaps one of the busiest days of the US presidential election calendar.

Fifteen US states head to the polls, potentially shedding more light on who the Republican and Democratic parties will pick as their nominee for president.

Stay with us through the day for updates and expert analysis of all the big developments from FT reporters across the US, including live results once polls close.

One of the big questions today will be whether this could wind up as Nikki Haley’s last stand in the presidential race, as the former UN ambassador is trailing former president Donald Trump by a wide margin in the polls.

For President Joe Biden, pundits will be watching voting patterns in several states for clues on broader support for the commander-in-chief, particularly on issues such as the Middle East and the economy.
