(WXYZ) - The November General Election is fast approaching and voters are getting ready to cast their ballots.

However, with redistricting many people will have to vote in a new precinct. 

Fortunately, the state of Michigan has developed an online resource that will tell you exactly what you need to know.

By entering your name, birth month and year and zip code you'll be able to find the exact location of your polling place.

You'll also be able to view a sample ballot showing exactly what races and issues you'll be voting on.
