Jorge greatly admired the pope. So like millions of Catholics worldwide, he mourned deeply when Pope John Paul II died on April 2, 2005. Two weeks later, Jorge and 114 other cardinals traveled to Rome to choose a new pope. The gathering, called a papal conclave, was governed by many rules, some centuries old. The cardinals had to take a vow of secrecy before they voted. They had to remain inside the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican until there was an election. To become pope, a cardinal needed a two-thirds majority—in this case, more than seventy-six votes. Voting could go on for a long time.
