Thanks for that info. I did not know that JPII changed the rules. Any speculation on his motives?
BTW, isn't "50 percent-plus-one vote" called a plurality rather than a majority?

I've no idea why the change was made, but see it as a bad move.
The article called it an "absolute majority" and I copied. Can't a plurality include if there are 3 candidates and one gets 40% versus the other two getting 30% each?
