This may as well have one answer. Hirano Aya wins by a long shot although Wendee has done some good works herself.

Aya, no contest.
Though I give the dub studio points for preserving the Voice Actor Joke between Haruhi and Konata.

The Lucky Star dub in general was awful, imo one of the Worst Dubs Ever (I'm looking at you Patty and Akira).

The Haruhi dub was mostly good (Crispin Freeman and Johnny Yong Bosch were great, Michelle Ruff and Wendee Lee turned in satisfactory performances, but Stephanie Sheh's Mikuru was a bit... forced), but the thing that utterly sunk it was 'Live Alive', specifically the translations of God Knows and Lost My Music, which were not only translated wrong, but then they were sung by a tone-deaf American in her late forties in the role of a high school girl. Should have kept it in Japanese.

Aya, she has the most variable voices between the two. Example Konata's voice and Haruhi's. :)

Aya Hirano wins by a longshot. She did a much better job portraying Haruhi and Konata then Wendee Lee.

Hirano Aya.
The people who voted for Wendee Lee must be deaf.

No competition. Aya

For Haruhi, I thought Wendee Lee was OK, and it was good for a dub, but that's the point right there, it was good... FOR A DUB.

For Lucky Star, I personally loved Wendee's Konata but again, it is not up to the uber-high-standard that Aya-chama threw down.

Well done to Wendee Lee for being a great dub actress and keeping the magic alive, but Aya beats your version hands down.

Dubs are worse 99% of the time. So, while the dub for Melancholy is half decent, it doesn't hold a candle to the original.
