I wouldn't carry an ID card. I know who I am and shouldn't need to prove it.

Passports, licences etc are entitlement cards to show that you are UK citizen, can drive etc.

Why should you need to prove who you are to vote, you can "prove" that you can vote in an area because you are on "the list"? Maybe taking the polling card should be compulsory but even then...
