Edginton joined the Rat Party and stood as a candidate for the party going into the 2019 General Election. The Rat Party won 127 seats in the election, the largest in MPSP history. However, the party failed to secure a majority of the seats in the house. The second-place FAM Party with 100 seats was able to reach confidence and supply agreement with the Plastics (19 seats) and the Cyborg Party (10 seats) to form a government that held the confidence of the house. Therefore, Edginton became a member of the Official Opposition.

MPSP20

Edginton joined the Rat Party and stood as a candidate for the party going into the 2019 General Election. The Rat Party won 127 seats in the election, the largest in MPSP history. However, the party failed to secure a majority of the seats in the house. The second-place FAM Party with 100 seats was able to reach confidence and supply agreement with the Plastics (19 seats) and the Cyborg Party (10 seats) to form a government that held the confidence of the house. Therefore, Edginton became a member of the Official Opposition.

Edginton was appointed Shadow Minister for Public Safety in the Rat Party Shadow Cabinet. During the sitting days, he served in the official opposition. He supported the effort to pass both opposition motions from the Rat Party and Plastics, which both passed by wide margins. The FAM government lost the confidence of the House by mid-afternoon on the first day.

The Rat Party then formed the new government, and due to his experience in the position of Shadow Minister, Edginton was appointed Minister of Public Safety. He opposed the opposition motion from the new Under the Sea Party, which had replaced FAM as the official opposition, as well as the private member's bill from the GOP which attacked zoomers and youth culture.

Sensing the imminent fall of the Rat Party government, Edginton voted against the government bill. He then joined his fellow members of Young M.U.F.F.I.N. (a merger of the former Zoomer Party of Canada and L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N.) in defecting from the government, as well as from a number of opposition parties.

Young M.U.F.F.I.N. secured a majority government for the afternoon of the second day, and Edginton was appointed Deputy Government House Leader. He was promoted to Government House Leader upon the resignation of his predecessor amid scandal.
