That would make sense if driver licences were difficult to obtain in US in any way shape or form, and they just aren't - almost everyone has one and it's not a big deal to get one.

Provably false.

And you need to do paperwork, which means you have to pay and find time. How do people with 2 or 3 jobs do?

91% of US adults have a driving licence:

So forgive me for being flippant but....how hard can it be?

>>How do people with 2 or 3 jobs do?

I assume they drive to those 3 jobs, so they somehow found a way.Again, sorry for being dismissive, and I appreciate it might be time consuming at costly - but still, 91% of all American adults have found a way to do this, so my point is that driving licences(along other documents) seem like a perfectly acceptable form of ID for voting?
