Korać was given the fiftieth position on the Progressive Party's list for the 2016 Vojvodina provincial election and was elected when the list won a majority victory with sixty-three out of 120 mandates.[8] For the next four years, he served as a supporter of the government. He attracted some attention in late 2016, when he donated four hundred thousand dinars to local civic organizations in Apatin after receiving an equivalent amount in compensation for damages on his farmstead.[9] He did not seek re-election in 2020.
