You Pick The Headline

Here's a quote from a story published yesterday:

Marvel, a veteran rural Nevada assemblyman, said he and other electors got letters from Democrats urging them to defect and switch their votes to Kerry. "I filed my letter you know where," he added.

There's no constitutional provision or federal law requiring electors to vote in line with the popular vote in their state. But a state law requires electors to follow the popular vote. (emphasis added)
Now, which headline do you think should have been used:

State Electoral College members vote for Bush

or

Democrat Operatives Solicit Republican Electors To Break Law

I'll be you can guess which one actually made it to press (via The Command Post). What do you think the headline would have been if the situation were reversed?
