Poll: Who Is the Greatest Lee?

Get your news from a source that’s not owned and controlled by oligarchs. Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily.

Over the weekend we learned that many schools named after Robert E. Lee would like to change their name but don’t want to pay for new signage. This means they need to find someone else named Lee to name their school after. But who?

We can help. Vote for your favorite Lee below, and I’ll post the results later today. This will give us a definitive list of the best Lees for schools to name themselves after.

UPDATE: Polling is closed. See the results here.

HERE’S WHERE YOU COME IN

We’ll say it loud and clear: No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
