Claim: Gaston Flosse, former French Polynesian President, wanted to oust current President Géros from his office.
Evidence: Gaston Flosse (born June 24, 1931) is a French politician who has been President of French Polynesia on five separate occasions. On October 8, 2004, the Gaston Flosse led opposition party succeeded in passing a censure motion against the Government. On October 22, 2004, he was re-elected to the presidency, and he took office that day, although doubt was cast on the legitimacy of this election by Antony Géros, the President of the French Polynesia Assembly (see French Polynesia political crisis 2004).
