Eleito prefeito de Pelotas em 2012 com aproximadamente 110 mil votos, governou o Município entre 2013 e 2016. Antes disso, foi Secretário Municipal, Vereador e Presidente da Câmara Municipal na mesma cidade. No final do mandato, Eduardo apareceu nas pesquisas de opinião com 87% de aprovação popular. Por considerar a reeleição um problema no atual sistema político brasileiro, embora líder nas pesquisas, anunciou que não iria concorrer a um novo mandato e indicou sua vice-prefeita Paula Mascarenhas como candidata. Paula venceu a eleição municipal de 2016, em primeiro turno, pela primeira vez em Pelotas com aproximadamente 112 mil votos. Estudou políticas públicas na Columbia University, em NY, EUA, cursa mestrado em gestão pública na FGV.
