Around 9% of US citizens 18 or older do not have a non-expired driver's license. It's even more for various minorities [1][2].

I only mentioned DMVs to point out that even if you didn't set out to get a voting document, you can still check the box and get it.
In other words, it's not "people need driver's licenses to vote".
Aren't poor and dumb usually republicans tho?
The poor disproportionately votes left. Somebody who is poor and lives without a valid ID that meets voting requirements is also not necessarily dumb.
