Seven counties promise to use paper ballots

SAN FRANCISCO - Seven of 18 counties sued to prevent them from using Diebold Election Systems' electronic voting machines in November's general election were removed from the lawsuit Wednesday when they gave assurances to a judge they would use paper ballots.

Those counties are Humboldt, Marin, Placer, San Luis Obispo, Trinity, Tulare and Santa Barbara counties. Butte County was added to the San Francisco County suit, filed last month by Voter Action. The suit also names California, which this year approved the use of the disputed voting machine - the AccuVote-TSX, built by Diebold Election Systems, based in Allen, Texas.
