The seat was created prior to the 2002 election and with the same redistribution turning Labor Party powerbroker and cabinet minister Andre Haermeyer's seat of Yan Yean into a marginal Liberal seat, Haermeyer decided to contest Kororoit. He won the seat with a margin of 27.1% making it the fourth-safest Labor seat in the state.
The seat is currently held by Luba Grigorovitch, who was elected at the 2022 Victorian state election following the retirement of Marlene Kairouz.
