The Poll Tax was usually a county tax, so the money went to the county for county government. US counties get most of their money by taxing all the land in the county. Poor blacks, who owned no land, thus paid little for county government. Many were sharecroppers, and the landowner they rented from was liable for the taxes on the land they farmed. The rich large landowners were politically powerful, and the poll tax was a way of shifting some of the burden of paying for county government from them onto their poor tenants, with the additional benefit of keeping any poor people who did not pay the tax from voting.
