Jack McKee (4 September 1943 – 4 October 2015) was a Northern Irish unionist politician who served as a Larne Borough Councillor for the Larne Area C DEA from 1973 to 1985, and then for Larne Town from 1985 to 2014.

A founding member of the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), McKee defected to the newly-formed Traditional Unionist Voice (TUV) in 2007, after disagreeing with his former party’s decision to form a power-sharing executive with Sinn Féin.
