Delegated powers are defined as powers authorized to be practiced by subordinates in the name of a superior authority. That is the simple explanation. By laws, US Constitutional authorities can be delegated as institutional regulations to the individual states or to the national association of states overall. Such as the right to free speech has universally been considered to be effective nationally as well as in the states themselves under the federal provisions. In that way, states can make their own laws, but must never contradict the national laws or US Constitution. In political parties, the definition gets entirely muddy and without much legitimacy. It is basically a "power of the fittest" form of subordinated power. For instance, party "delegates" are supposed to represent the body of voters in their jurisdiction, but in reality it is a form of political machine politics. Delegates are not required to vote the way their electorate indicates is the prevailing sentiment! It is no accident that our USA has no form of direct vote wherein the public gives the actual approval or disapproval action to any political action. That is why our USA has an electoral college, to prevent the public from having a true Democracy! Yet, that is still considered to be a delegated form of Democracy!
Somebody in charge can authorize another person to act as their representative; (e.g. a deputy or an agent.)

The person so authorized is said to have delegated powers, - the authority to act is passed down to the representative but responsibility remains with the person in charge.
