Ion potentials are electricity... That's the same thing as a voltage measurement: a difference in ion charge between two areas. Open the gate and the charge diffuses. That's a wire.
And in nerves it's ion pumps first shoving ions outside and if a trigger occurs, the gate opening, ions flooding in, opening the next gate and so fort. It's not the same.
