Yes.<p>I devote about 5 or so percent of my free time to civics.  This means learning about my local options, who actually can impact my life in notable and significant ways, as well as just being active.  Being active means doing advocacy actions, the occasional trip to the State capitol, phone banking, GOTV efforts of various kinds, etc...<p>I sure wish I knew how to convince more 20 somethings to vote.
