   RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam's push to ban   
   the sale of assault weapons has failed after members of his own   
   party balked at the proposal.   
      
   Moderate Democrats joined Republicans on a Senate committee   
   Monday in rejecting legislation that would have prohibited the   
   sale of certain semiautomatic firearms, including popular AR-15   
   style rifles, and banned the possession of magazines that hold   
   more than 12 rounds.   
      
   The bill was a top priority for Northam, a Democrat who has   
   campaigned heavily for a broad package of gun-control measures.
