Bernie Sanders invited two undocumented immigrants on stage at a rally in Louisville, Ky., shortly before winning the Indiana primary Tuesday night.
“There are 11 million undocumented people in this country, and I have talked to many of them,” the Democratic presidential hopeful told supporters as laughter and applause interrupted his speech.
“There’s one right here,” the Vermont senator said, pointing to an individual in the crowd.
“There’s two,” he added before inviting the supporters on stage.
After hugging and shaking hands with the two men, Sanders allowed one of the supporters to approach the microphone.
“Viva Bernie!” he said to loud cheers.
Sanders won the Indiana primary in an upset of Hillary Clinton, who polls showed leading ahead of the contest.
