Cardinals set to begin voting to elect new pope in Sistine Chapel

NEWS.AZ - Cardinals will take part in a mass at St Peter's Basilica this morning and will later walk to the Sistine Chapel to cast their votes under Michelangelo's frescoes, News.Az reports, citing BBC.

Once they enter the chapel, they will have no communication with the outside world until a new pope is elected.

Then we wait for smoke to emerge from the chapel’s chimney. If it's black, there will be more rounds of voting tomorrow. White smoke signals that a new pope has been chosen.
