This is a highly theoretical concept with many woolly ill-defined parts.
PREF sounds like a system only a tyrant could install.
Technocrats soon turn into autocrats.
#sortition stills sounds a better simpler well trusted system for governance.

We use a randomly selected jury (#sortition) to assess the guilt or innocence of crimes like murder.
#sortition is preferred to ensure no systemic bias comes into play. The same system needs to be introduced to parliament and parliamentary committees but better paid

Start that Party. Call it By The People. It will have the aim of severing the corruption highway Capital takes to power, by abolishing elections and introducing government by Citizens Assemblies selected by sortition. No other policies, except one; a UBI. Other policies are for the People to decide.

YourParty are still an electoral Party. They may incorporate some form of sortition into selecting their conference delegates; but they haven't made any noises at all towards being anything other than another party people can vote for.
That being the case, they perpetuate corruption by capitalism.

If you have been selected for conference by sortition -
Do not book trains
Do not book hotels
Do not spend your own money until conference is confirmed - by the VENUE, NOT YP
You stand to lose significant amounts of money.
