using geo_countries and geo_us_states in same search

I want to create a chloropleth map of vendors in the US, highlighted by state. but Canada is also a vendor I want to include. Does this mean I must have 2 calls to geom? The first being 'geom geo_countries Location" and the second being 'geom geo_us_states Location" After I do this, I visualize the map and only the list of states is highlighted.
