Without a pardon, Edwards remains ineligible to seek the governorship until 15 years have passed from the end of his sentence. In 2013, Edwards co-starred, alongside his third wife Trina, in an A&E reality show, "The Governor's Wife" based on their life together. In 2014, Edwards ran in the 2014 election to represent in the United States House of Representatives. He placed first in the jungle primary, but was crushed by nearly 25 points in the runoff election.
