Yes, the core irony that the same people:
a) Want to make having an ID as a prerequisite for voting
and
b) Are deeply against any form of national ID card (or anything else that makes it cheap and easy to get an ID)
It's almost (almost) like they want to prevent poor people from cities (who don't need cars) from voting.
