More in the context of potentially cancelled primaries than postponed ones. If they have them eventually, it's harder to make a case for reducing delegates. But, if they are forced to be cancelled in order to have a reasonable timeline to election day, it makes sense to change the delegate allotment.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
