Roughly 150 attendees filled the Teamsters union hall in northeast Springfield on Monday night to cheer on Democratic candidates running for office. Missi Hesketh is mayor of Forsyth, a small town near Branson. She’s running for U.S. House Representative for the 7th District, hoping to unseat incumbent Republican Eric Burlison. Poll forecasters don’t give her much of a shot. But Hesketh is upbeat.
