Gallup Poll: Huckabee's support tilts South & Mid-West; Romney's East & West

Huckabee does better among Republicans in the South (24%) and Midwest (20%) than among those in the East (13%) and West (14%). He also does much better among conservative than among liberal or moderate Republicans, 21% vs. 14%.
By contrast, Romney fares best in the East (20%) and West (20%) -- topping Huckabee in these regions. Liberal/moderate and conservative Republicans support him to similar degrees.
Results are based on telephone interviews conducted as part of Gallup Daily tracking April 15-20, March 18-22, and Feb. 18-20, 2011, with a random sample of at least 1,000 Republicans and Republican-leaning independents, aged 18 and older, living in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia, at each of these time periods.
For results based on the total aggregate sample of 3,304 Republicans, one can say with 95% confidence that the maximum margin of sampling error is ±2 percentage points.

I guess they count Florida as an eastern rather than southern state.

I'm not so sure Huckabee has a lock on the south ot Mid-west:

Iowa?
SC?
Florida?
