Huckabee Very Much in the Missouri Mix; McCain Battles in Three-For-All: The outcome of Missouri's Winner-Take-All Republican Primary is impossible to know, 4 days to the vote, according to a SurveyUSA poll conducted exclusively for KCTV-TV Kansas City and KSDK-TV St. Louis.

Huckabee leads in the Ozarks. Romney and Huckabee tie in Central MO. Romney leads among voters focused on Immigration, Terrorism and Social Security. The relative size of regional turnout could decide the contest.
