Politician edit
Municipal politics edit
Đedovac led the Progressive Party's electoral list for Bačka Palanka in the 2012 Serbian local elections and was elected when the list won nine mandates.[2][3] The Progressive Party subsequently participated in a local coalition government, and Đedovac was appointed as deputy mayor.[4] Following a restructuring of the local government in March 2013, he was reassigned as mayor.[5] In 2014, Bačka Palanka was listed as the most successful municipality in Serbia in terms of development; in an interview with Al Jazeera Balkans, Đedovac credited this to the municipality's work in seeking out investors.[6] He was not a candidate for re-election at the local level in 2016.
Đedovac also received the 163rd position on the Progressive Party's Let's Get Serbia Moving list in the 2012 Serbian parliamentary election.[7] The list won seventy-three seats, and he was not elected.
Assembly of Vojvodina edit
Đedovac was given the forty-seventh position on the Progressive Party's list in the 2016 Vojvodina provincial election and was elected when the list won a majority victory with sixty-three out of 120 mandates.[8] He was promoted to the twenty-eighth position on the list in the 2020 provincial election and was re-elected when the list won an increased majority with seventy-six mandates.[9] He is now the chair of the assembly committee on security and a member of the committee on national equality.[10]
