A new Pope has not been elected yet again

Black smoke is rising from the Sistine Chapel chimney again. Vatican cardinals have failed to elect a new pope for the second time.

To be elected, a candidate must receive more than two-thirds of the cardinals' votes. This has not happened so far. When the conclave reaches a unanimous decision, white smoke will come out of the chimney.

Recall that voting for the election of the Pope began yesterday.
