I can see two downsides to this. Neither a show stopper, but they ought to be considered.
1) Bloc voting will be encouraged because delegation itself is unavoidably visible to the recipient even if only in delegate count. This could be exploited by abusers to take control of their victim/partner's vote, cults to hand everything to the guru, and so on.
2) A feature of representative democracy that's reviled and relied upon in equal measure is the ability of leaders, once elected, to take controversial decisions, or to stick by earlier promises, creating stability. If the power leaders exercise can change in real time, who could ever reach a decision eg: close the border in an epidemic?
