BREAKING – ‘HABEMUS PAPAM’: White Smoke Comes Out of Sistine Chapel Chimney to the Delight of the Faithful Gathered in St. Peter’s Square! Cardinal – 267th Pope has been chosen!

Around 50 thousand people stood in St. Peter’s square on a hot springtime day.

The faithful hoped that the second day of voting in the conclave would bring a resolution to the question: who will be the next Pope, the 276^th occupant of St. Peter’s throne.

The two morning votes both brought no results, but the first vote after lunch brought an explosion of joy as the bells rang in the Vatican.

This is a developing story, and we will update it as the information becomes available.
