A campaign spokesman for Republican presidential candidate and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee says he's recovering after having knee surgery in Little Rock.

Spokesman Alice Stewart said Huckabee injured his knee on the campaign trail three weeks ago and underwent surgery Wednesday morning at a Little Rock hospital.

Stewart said Huckabee had hoped to go duck hunting while back in Arkansas for the Thanksgiving holiday but will instead spend the weekend recovering before getting back to the campaign trail Monday.

Huckabee is making his second bid for president after running unsuccessfully in 2008.
