There are 252 cardinals in total, but only 138 of them are eligible to vote for the next Pope – the rest are ruled out because they are over the age of 80. Of the 138, 110 were appointed by Pope Francis – about 80 per cent. “With his appointments, he wants to ensure a process that produces a Pope that the Church needs for these times,” said Austen Ivereigh, who is close to Pope Francis and wrote a biography of him, titled The Great Reformer: Francis and the Making of a Radical Pope.
“He wants the College of Cardinals to confront the realities of the world. He has named people who will bring to the discussion about the future Pope the voice of migrants, of the poor, of the victims of war.”
