Huckabee wins Arkansas Republican presidential vote

Tue Feb 5, 2008 8:32pm EST

DALLAS, Feb 5 (Reuters) - Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee won his home state primary on Tuesday in a victory that could help him stay a contender in the Republican nominating race, U.S. media projected.

Arkansas was the third state to go for Huckabee in voting on Super Tuesday, so called because nearly half of the U.S. states are holding contests to choose Republican or Democratic candidates for the November general election.

Republican front-runner John McCain, an Arizona senator, has won three states so far in Super Tuesday contests, while former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney has won one. Huckabee served as Arkansas governor between 1996 and 2007.
