Cardinals return to vote in Sistine Chapel as election for new pope enters second day

Cardinals have started returning to the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican to vote for a new pope as the papal conclave enters its second day.

The first round of voting to succeed Pope Francis was held on Wednesday in the Vatican but resulted in black smoke billowing from the chapel’s chimney, meaning no cardinal has reached the required threshold to win the election.

On day two, cardinals will vote up to four times throughout the morning and afternoon with the hope white smoke will be released into the skies to signal a new pope has been chosen.
