In Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery," the town is governed by a group of local officials and community leaders, who uphold the tradition of the lottery. The men in the town, including the postmaster and the blacksmith, play key roles in organizing the event, reflecting the patriarchal structure of the community. The lottery itself is a ritualistic event that the townspeople collectively participate in, indicating a broader societal conformity to tradition and authority.

The film, Waking Ned Devine was directed by Kirk Jones in 1998. The film is about a group of people, neighboring in a small town, who are all attempting to possess the lottery money due to the sudden death of the original winner.
The structure of the town in "The Lottery" is not democratic because the villagers blindly follow tradition without questioning its morality or necessity. The lottery itself is a brutal and arbitrary system that does not allow for input or choice from the participants. It's a chilling commentary on the dangers of blindly adhering to harmful traditions.
Some stock characters present in "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson include the town's leader, Mr. Summers; Mr. Graves, who assists with the lottery process; Old Man Warner, the traditionalist who insists on continuing the lottery; and Tessie Hutchinson, who ultimately becomes the "winner" of the town's brutal tradition.
