Apples and oranges. Polling costs nothing; ID costs money. Polling places are usually within walking distance of home (at least in urban areas); license bureaus are scattered and distant. My polling place is two blocks from my house. I can walk there, vote, and be home in 20 minutes. Last time I had to renew my license, it was a three hour ordeal that cost me money and an afternoon of work, and the nearest station is miles from my house (in a dense city).
