The conclave can take a few hours or <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/vatican-new-pope-election-conclave-history-fun-facts-6a5dbba91e064dc0c973ae26773a0723\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">nearly three years<\/a>, the record set in the 13th century.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Once the smoke puffs white, indicating that a pope has been chosen, The Times will have the news, and information about the man selected, on its home page within minutes, with context about his canonical leanings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cAt least, that\u2019s the hope,\u201d Mr. Horowitz said. \u201cWe try to be prepared, but there could always be a dark-horse candidate who emerges.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">So how does The Times get information about what\u2019s going on behind the locked doors of the Sistine Chapel?<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The preparation starts well in advance. A team of a dozen reporters, editors, photographers and videographers, led by The Times\u2019s Europe editor, Adrienne Carter, have pitched in to help. In the days leading up to the conclave, reporters in Rome interviewed civilians and church officials about what they want in a new pope, and tried to figure out the most plausible candidates.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIt\u2019s a lot of smoke and mirrors and trying to read the tea leaves,\u201d said Motoko Rich, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytco.com\/press\/new-bureau-chiefs-for-madrid-and-rome\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Times\u2019s incoming Rome bureau chief<\/a>. (Mr. Horowitz will soon head to Madrid to lead The Times\u2019s bureau there.) \u201cWith most of the cardinals we\u2019ve caught, we\u2019ve sent someone to loiter around the doors. They\u2019re pretty tight-lipped,\u201d Ms. Rich added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cUsually the people who talk know less, and the people who don\u2019t say anything know more,\u201d Mr. Horowitz said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But sometimes those who say less publicly talk to reporters in private. \u201cWe\u2019re just trying to get as clear a picture of what is happening now behind closed doors,\u201d Mr. Horowitz said. \u201cWhen they go into the conclave, they can\u2019t talk, and all bets are off \u2014 anything can happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The unofficial politicking by cardinals begins years before a conclave, and kicks into high gear when a pope becomes sick. They might take Italian lessons, embark on a book tour and meet with other cardinals to build relationships \u2014 and curry favor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Times has been rolling out short profiles of cardinals with the most prospects. Journalists in the cardinals\u2019 home countries are contributing reporting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Then, beginning today, about a dozen Times journalists will be in Vatican City each day, along with more than 2,700 other credentialed members of the media. The day starts early, with reporters setting up camp outside the Sistine Chapel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">How long the conclave will last is hard to say. In 2005, Pope Benedict XVI was elected on the fourth ballot, after less than 24 hours. In 2013, the cardinals took scarcely longer to decide on Pope Francis, who was selected on the fifth ballot after two days. But this time, Mr. Horowitz said, there is no clear favorite.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">For the past 10 days, at around 1 p.m., a spokesperson for the Vatican has held a news conference recapping what the cardinals discussed that morning \u2014 though this \u201ctells us nothing,\u201d said Elisabetta Povoledo, who covers the Vatican.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIt\u2019s all in general, broad terms,\u201d Ms. Povoledo said. \u201cThey\u2019ll say things like, \u2018They\u2019re talking about evangelization, or the priorities for the church.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Times reporters must rely on the relationships they\u2019ve built over years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cNow is the time to marshal those and hope that they bear some sort of fruit,\u201d Mr. Horowitz said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">There is no designated smoke watcher on the Times team (there\u2019s too much else to do), but once white smoke is spotted and bells are rung to signal that a decision has been made, there will be a rush to learn the new pope\u2019s name.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">After the bells ring out, Mr. Horowitz said, a representative from the Vatican will emerge onto the balcony overlooking St. Peter\u2019s Square and announce the new pope in Latin with the words \u201cHabemus Papam!\u201d \u2014 \u201cWe have a pope!\u201d \u2014 and his chosen papal name.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Many will be awaiting the news: Around 18 percent of the world\u2019s population, or one in every five people, is Catholic. There is also intense curiosity about the conclave process after Robert Harris\u2019s 2016 novel, \u201cConclave,\u201d <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/24\/movies\/conclave-review.html\" title=\"\">was given the Hollywood treatment last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The film, directed by Edward Berger and starring Ralph Fiennes as the dean of the College of Cardinals, gives a surprisingly accurate account, Ms. Povoledo cited insiders as saying <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/25\/movies\/conclave-edward-berger.html\" title=\"\">in her story last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI\u2019ve found that bishops and cardinals who have seen it like it,\u201d Mr. Horowitz said of the movie. \u201cIt captured the place and the drama.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion
