If property is being sold for back taxes in a couple days and someone else finds out goes to courthouse pays all the back taxes due on the property because owners did not want the property. who owns?
Typically, if the back taxes are paid by anyone before the tax sale, ownership of the property does not change. If there was a written agreement between the owners and the person who paid the taxes that stated that the owners agreed to deed the property to the tax-payer after the tax-payer paid the taxes, then the agreement could be enforced as a legally binding contract and the owners could be forced to deed the property to the tax-payer. However, the owners remain the owners until they deed the property to someone else or until the property is sold at a tax sale or other type of foreclosure.
If owner does not live on the property but a life tenant does who pays taxes?

What reasoning supported tying the right to vote property ownership?
Before 1920, most taxes were assessed on property. When all taxes are based on property, it makes sense to restrict voting to property owners. When non-property owners are voting on property TAXES, the non-owner is has no reason not to vote for higher taxes that he won't be paying. Since the advent of the income tax, even people who don't own property are paying taxes, so the voter rolls needed to be expanded. Here in 2014, the disconnect between paying taxes and voting is becoming bad again.
