Conclave: About 30,000 people expect first smoke in the Vatican

About 30 thousand people are in São Pedro Square, in Vatican waiting on Wednesday (7) the first smoke of the conclave, told the Italian police to the Italian affiliate of CNN, Sky TG24.

The color of smoke will signal to the crowd whether there was a consensus for the choice of Francis’ successor or not, in an election that is not expected to end.

Black means that the cardinals could not elect a new Pope, while white smoke means that they came to a decision about the next leader of the Catholic Church.
