If you’re active in “The Hunger Games” viral site, you might stand a good chance of winning. “The Hunger Games” stars Liam Hemsworth, Jennifer Lawrence, Elizabeth Banks, Josh Hutcherson, Willow Shields, Woody Harrelson and Stanley Tucci.

The site has recently issued this release from President Corliolanus Snow about running for mayor. You can read the full release (which includes the list of mayoral candidates) below, but, here is a snippet of what Snow wrote:

“In a few days, the District Mayoral elections will reach their glorious conclusion. All citizens who ahve taken part in the electoral process are worthy of praise. My warmest regards, however, are reserved for every Mayoral candidate-win or lose, the spirit each of you have shown in your campaigns proves that District pride is alive and well.”
