With white smoke now billowing from the chimney on the Sistine Chapel, it's clear the voting process has concluded and the cardinals have chosen a successor to Pope Francis. We don't yet know who has been selected, but it will become clear when they emerge on the balcony of the Sistine Chapel, likely within the hour. Stick with us and we'll let you know who it is, as soon as we have confirmation.

That was quick. I guess they wanted their phones back.

they usually have their favorite candidates. Choosing a new Pope in the second day means there's concensus and unity. Bergoglio and Ratzinger were also chosen in the second day IIRC.
 
Ok, who here besides me when they were a kid that the pope was the stuff in orange juice and wondered why people talked about it so much?
 
The Pope is from my home town and is a Cubs fan! Wooooooo!!!!!

I'm also born and raised on the southside of Chicago.

I guess we're in for a few years of people declaring that the pope is gaslighting them.
I'm not Catholic, so it doesn't matter to me what he says, but most of the Supreme Court is Catholic, so he is going to have a noticeable impact on policy going forward. This was a simple check done by the oldest political body in the world.
