Poll: Will You Be Watching The Election Of A New Pope?

Papal conclave meetings to begin Tuesday afternoon.

 

With the Vatican set to begin the process of electing a new Pope Tuesday, millions of eyes will be looking for white smoke rising from the Sistine Chapel, signifying that two-thirds, or 77 of the 115 Cardinals eligible to vote, have agreed on the man to succeed Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. 

The election of a new Pope attracts attention from Catholics and non-Catholics alike. Will you be one of them?

Local reaction to Pope's resignation announcement:
