Robert Gordon (1865 – November 1, 1921) was an American politician from Vermont. He served as mayor of Barre, Vermont from 1916 to 1917 and was the first socialist elected in the state. In his inaugural address, Gordon stressed the need to improve the health conditions of the workers in the city's vibrant quarrying industry, saying "Something has to be done to improve the health conditions in the granite sheds, for men are learning that high wages don’t mean much if you are down and out at fifty."
