Yes. Vote in all elections. Vote locally since that's where real grassroots politicians get their start and can have the opportunity to build their reputation. Do some active research and donate time or money to campaigns you really support. Vote in primaries to get your preferred candidates into the general. Vote the best or at least the least bad electable option in the general. Bitter old assholes have nothing better to do than consume media that will try to scare them into getting their asses to the ballot boxes to vote in ways that help those media companies grow more profit. We need to similarly remain aware and active to contest their weaponized gullibility. These are the same demographic who get tricked into buying iTunes gift cards to hand over to scammers posing as the IRS.
