Conclave to choose the next leader of the Catholic Church is set to begin
The solemn process of selecting a new pope is set to begin on Wednesday (May 7) at the Vatican as 133 cardinals prepare to enter into seclusion for the conclave. In the afternoon, they will form a procession to enter the Sistine Chapel and take their solemn oath of secrecy. Everyone not involved in the conclave will then be ordered to leave and the chapel doors will be closed. The first vote may be cast in the evening. Trent Murray reports from Rome.
