MSNBC reports that the Holy Father won by four votes!

That is bull... MSNBC is so low.. they think they know the votes. Wrong... The votes were burned and no one will ever know. No matter how hard they try they loose.


The vote was 3/4 plus 1 of all Cardinals voting. If 118 Cardinals.





What colossal nerve!
115 voted.
Impossible that he won by a mere 4 votes.

He needed 77 so if he won by 4 votes that must mean he got 81 of 115.

_________________________________________________

115*.75 = 86+25

round it up to 87 because he had to have 75% if 75% is right.

87+4 = 91

or if it is two-thirds as I think

115*.67 = 77.05

round it up to 78

78+4 = 82

So clearly this Pope quickly got the votes of a huge majority of the Cardinals.
