The Lost Cause mythology was the default historiography of the Civil War for most of the 20th century, even outside of the South.
Honestly this is fairly impressive, given the vague poll wording and the fact that taking down statues tends to be unpopular. Tbh, I don't really get people who want to keep Confederate statues up; they generally are artistically dull and were typically erected as part of the instantiation of Jim Crow. Nothing appealing about them!
