It’s the second day of the conclave. Here’s how it will unfold

It’s the second day of the conclave. Here’s how it will unfold After spending the night and having breakfast at their Santa Marta residence, the cardinals will reconvene in the Sistine Chapel for the second round of voting. Whereas yesterday’s procession to the Sistine Chapel was broadcast to the world, we won’t see any of the cardinals’ movements today. They have been sequestered — and our only glimpse into their thinking will be the smoke that billows from the chapel’s chimney. As many as four votes can be held today — two in the morning, and two in the afternoon. But we won’t see smoke more than twice today. We’ll either see white smoke or no smoke during this morning’s first vote, and then either white smoke or black smoke for the second round. The same is true in the afternoon’s two sessions. If we get a pope in the first round of voting this morning, we should see smoke at around 10:30 a.m. local time (4:30 a.m. ET). If not, the first time we’ll see smoke is at around midday (6 a.m. ET). If we get to the afternoon, we will either see smoke at around 5:30 p.m. local (11:30 a.m. ET) or 7 p.m. (1 p.m. ET). vatican conclave cardinals pope francis pope new pope conclave 2025 vatican news conclave news papal conclave 2025 new pope elected is there a new pope pope election who is the new pope 2025 conclave pope candidates black smoke pope conclave live stream vatican longest conclave black smoke conclave updates conclave live the new pope who's the new pope pope news is there a new pope yet the conclave pope vote conclave smoke what does black smoke mean pope vatican live stream black smoke conclave cardinal dolan conclave vote when will the new pope be elected conclave update has a pope ever been elected on the first ballot conclave black smoke vatican smoke pope watch pope conclave 2025 cardinal who will be the new pope pope black smoke black smoke vatican how long did it take to elect pope francis conclave start michelangelo vatican live what is conclave #VaticanConclave #Cardinals #PopeFrancis #Pope #NewPope #Conclave2025 #VaticanNews #ConclaveNews #PapalConclave2025 #NewPopeElected #IsThereANewPope #PopeElection #WhoIsTheNewPope2025 #Conclave #PopeCandidates #BlackSmokePope #ConclaveLiveStream #Vatican #LongestConclave #BlackSmoke #ConclaveUpdates #ConclaveLive #TheNewPope #WhosTheNewPope #PopeNews #IsThereANewPopeYet #TheConclave #PopeVote #ConclaveSmoke #WhatDoesBlackSmokeMeanPope #VaticanLiveStream #BlackSmokeConclave #CardinalDolan #ConclaveVote #WhenWillTheNewPopeBeElected #ConclaveUpdate #HasAPopeEverBeenElectedOnTheFirstBallot #ConclaveBlackSmoke #VaticanSmoke #PopeWatch #PopeConclave2025 #Cardinal #WhoWillBeTheNewPope #PopeBlackSmoke #BlackSmokeVatican #HowLongDidItTakeToElectPopeFrancis #ConclaveStart #Michelangelo #VaticanLive #WhatIsConclave
