VATICAN (CWNews.com) -- Cardinal Jose Sanchez, the native of the
Philippines and former prefect of the Congregation for the Clergy, will
celebrate his 80th birthday on March 17, and therefore become ineligible to
vote in a papal election.
As Cardinal Sanchez passes the maximum age for cardinal electors, there will
be 103 cardinals eligible to vote in a conclave. Of there 46 are from Europe,
18 from Latin America, 12 from North America, 12 from Africa, 11 from
Asia, and 4 from Australia and Oceania.
For our profile on Cardinal Sanchez, see
