More black smoke emerged from the Vatican's Sistine Chapel chimney after the two morning votes concluded. No candidate has emerged with the two-thirds majority required to elect a new Pope.
The Cardinal Electors will break for lunch, and then return to the Sistine Chapel for an afternoon round of voting later today.
Stay tuned!
As we head into Day 2 of the Conclave, here is a handy visual of the schedule from our friends at OSV News:
Note: These times are given according to local time in Rome (Central European Summer Time). Eastern Daylight Time in the United States is 6 hours behind Rome. If a Pope is elected in the first ballot of Day 2, we could see smoke as early as 10:30 a.m. CEST, which is 4:30 a.m. EDT in the United States.
Stay tuned!
With the command, "Extra omnes," the conclave to elect the 267th Pope is now underway. There is one round of voting today, followed by up to four rounds of voting tomorrow if necessary. Watch the world's most famous chimney, LIVE via our friends at MSNBC:
