I need to get geometry coordinates of the USA states. I use CloudMade API and it works well for the most states, but for several others I can't find coordinates - CouldMade API returns multiple results for other places, not states.

I use the requests like this one: http://geocoding.cloudmade.com/e485574f2cf2424aac17f42908aa2ce3/geocoding/v2/find.js?query=HAWAII&return_geometry=true

Here is the list of states which couldn't be processed well.

CONNECTICUT
GEORGIA
HAWAII
FLORIDA
LOUISIANA
MARYLAND
MISSISSIPPI
NEW JERSEY
NORTH CAROLINA
NORTH DAKOTA
SOUTH CAROLINA
SOUTH DAKOTA

Does anybody know, is it possible to get the geo coordinates of these states using CouldMade service or any other geocoding services?

Triad sou.

Question is solved. Here is the correct request format (query parameter should contains 'county' prefix):

http://geocoding.cloudmade.com/BC9A493B41014CAABB98F0471D759707/geocoding/v2/find.js?return_location=true&results=10&skip=0&query=county:CONNECTICUT&return_geometry=true
