Daniel Greenfield / Sultan Knish articles: What a Stalin Quote About Rigging Elections Reveals About the 2020 Election

"As Republicans began pushing back against the rigged election, a quote about voting from Joseph Stalin began circulating on social media. 

"The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything," is how variations of it went.
As soon as the quote went viral, the media’s fact checkers tried to suppress it.
USA Today's fact checker rated it as false, claiming that Stalin had never said it based on speaking with two history professors at Vanderbilt University who vowed that they never heard of it. 

One of the professors, who serves as the Director of Undergraduate Russian and East European Studies, ranted that it was, "an example of American right-wing paranoia, active manipulation of public opinion, or outright and fascism". 

Truly a quote worthy of Stalin.
But had the ‘fact checker’ and the professors just checked Oxford's Essential Quotations, they would have found it.
