But the trends, both voting and pre-polling, are so heavily turning towards Joe Biden, why delay the inevitable?

If Ohio hadn't postponed, and gone for Biden, the argument would even easier to make.

In Chicago/Cook County, the Democratic primary is the de facto election for most candidates and judges. So, our primary is still important even if a presidential nominee has it locked up.
