Biography
[edit]Choffat earned a degree in public law from the University of Rennes 1 and obtained a doctorate in political science.[1] He became a lecturer at the University of Lorraine and joined the Association française de science politique . He served on the council of administrators of the Souvenir napoléonien. In 2010, he became President of the Vosges Napoléoniennes, an association re-enacting events from the department of Vosges.[2]
A Bonapartist activist, Choffat co-founded the political party Rassemblement bonapartiste in 1992. The party dissolved in 1996 and he subsequently co-founded Avenir France République, under which he stood in the 1997 French legislative election, garnering 3% of the vote in Doubs's 3rd constituency. In 2000, he founded France bonapartiste, of which he served as Vice-President.[3] In 2008, he was elected Deputy Mayor of Fraimbois,[4] as well as community councilor in Mortagne.[5] In 2015, he unsuccessfully ran for Departmental Councilor of Canton of Lunéville-2.[6]
Choffat joined the Gaullist party Debout la France. In 2013, he was elected to the party's national council.[7] However, he subsequently left the party due to its shift to the right. He became Vice-President of the party L'Appel au Peuple,[8] founded on 4 May 2021 by David Saforcada.[9]
