They assemble in the Sistine Chapel, taking a secrecy oath, and engage in secret voting, with four rounds per day. A candidate must secure two-thirds of the votes to be elected. This process, unchanged for nearly 800 years, is the oldest method for electing a head of state still in use. Notably, only men are eligible, as women cannot be ordained as priests in the Catholic Church.
