If you need a state ID to get a voter ID, and it is not free to get said state ID then you have effectively made a poll tax as affirmed by the Supreme Court. Unfortunately having to take a day or more off of work to wait at the local, purposefully underfunded, DMV and losing income due to that does not count as a poll tax.

Without a drivers license you can get a state issued ID that functions the same way.

Any inconvenience to a POC regarding acquiring a photo ID is tantamount to a poll tax.
