James King of Poland

In 1696 King Louis XIV asked James II/VII if he'd like to be France's candidate in the election of the new King of Poland, James II/VII turned Louis XIV down fearing that if he became King of Poland he'd never get England and Scotland back, Louis XIV went on to pick François Louis, Prince of Conti to back, Conti won the vote though Frederick Augustus I of Saxony ran to Poland and was crowned any ways.

what if James II/VII had agreed to be France's candidate had won the vote(as France's candidate in OTL did) and was Crowned King of Poland in 1697?
