In as much as Walter Cardinal Kasper (sometimes called the 'pope's theologian') has said that African Catholics тАЬshould not tell us too much what we have to doтАЭ, and he is no longer of voting age, but 41 of 83 voting-age cardinals are from the global south, I suspect that the results could be very surprising.
