Either A) you run your own business and therefore can schedule an hour to run by the DMV or B) the are employed and required to have a photo ID to get the job. I can't see this as being the reason many poor don't vote.

I think a lot of people aren't looking for work for whatever reason (especially if they're older), or are just working odd under-the-table kinds of jobs (if they're younger). I don't think we need voter ID laws, but I also don't think anywhere close to 500,000 people in Texas or whatever have actually tried to get IDs and failed, and that they all want to vote Democrat but simply can't. I think both the fraud angle and the the people-being-unable-to-vote angles are overblown. Just something else to fight about besides governing.
