The image depicts two influential women, both duchesses, passionately campaigning for an early poll during a pivotal election year. Dressed in elaborate attire adorned with ostrich feathers, these female campaigners challenge traditional gender roles and assert their presence in the male-dominated world of politics.

Rowlandson's satire is evident as he playfully mocks the political system and its participants. The artist skillfully captures the essence of each character, highlighting their unique personalities and motivations. One cannot help but be drawn into this scene filled with intrigue and anticipation. The presence of Charles James Fox adds another layer to this composition.
