US EditionThe Latest: Cardinals vote in the Vatican for a second day to elect a new pope
- One hundred thirty-three Catholic cardinals began the secretive conclave on April 24, 2025, in the Vatican to elect Pope Francis' successor.
- The conclave started following Pope Francis' death on April 21 and includes the most geographically diverse electors in the Church's 2,000-year history.
- Cardinals write their votes on ballots inscribed with 'Eligo in summum pontificem,' place them in a silver and gold urn, and burn them to signal results by smoke color.
- The election requires a two-thirds majority of 89 votes, with prominent candidates including Cardinals Pietro Parolin and Luis Tagle, while secrecy and traditional ritual govern the process.
- The conclave outcome will determine whether the new pope continues Francis' progressive legacy or seeks church unity by addressing internal polarization and global challenges.
