RICHMOND, Va. (AP, WHSV) — Former Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders endorsed Tom Perriello Tuesday in Virginia governor's race, saying progressives must be elected "at every level of government if we are going to beat back the dangerous agenda of the Trump administration and its Republican allies."

The endorsement is Perriello's highest profile to date. Support from the Vermont senator's loyalists could give Perriello's insurgent campaign a boost against the state party's establishment pick, Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam, in the June Democratic primary.
