The N.C. Sheriff Police Alliance has endorsed Beverly Perdue.
The group, which represents law enforcement officers in the state, announced its endorsement of the Democratic gubernatorial candidate today.
"Bev Perdue is not only good for law enforcement, she's good for North Carolina," said president Andy Miller in a statement.
The Sheriff Police Alliance was started in 2007 by three current and former Durham police officers. Miller previously served as president of the N.C. Police Benevolent Association, which represents 4,500 law enforcement officers in the state.
It has previously only made endorsements in local races in Durham.
Perdue has also been endorsed by EMILY's List, the N.C. Association of Educators, the National Association of Social Workers, the United Transportation Union, the National Women's Political Caucus, the N.C. Academy of Trial Lawyers, the Communications Workers of America and the N.C. Trooper's Association.
