The papal conclaves of August 1978 and of October 1978 were convened to elect a pope, the leader of the Catholic Church, to succeed Paul VI and John Paul I following their respective deaths on 6 August 1978 and on 28 September 1978. In accordance with the apostolic constitution Romano Pontifici eligendo, which governed the vacancy of the Holy See, only cardinals who had not passed their 80th birthday on the day on which the conclave began (in these cases, those who were born on or after 25 August 1898 for the first conclave, and on or after 14 October 1898 for the second conclave) were eligible to participate.{{cite web|url=https://w2.vatican.va/content/paul-vi/la/apost_constitutions/documents/hf_p-vi_apc_19751001_romano-pontifici-eligendo.html|title=Romano Pontifici Eligendo|type=Apostolic constitution|author=Pope Paul VI|date=1 October 1975|website=The Holy See|publisher=Libreria Editrice Vaticana|language=la|access-date=7 December 2018|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20200206122614/https://www.vatican.va/content/paul-vi/la/apost_constitutions/documents/hf_p-vi_apc_19751001_romano-pontifici-eligendo.html|archive-date=6 February 2020|url-status=live}} Although not formal requirements, the cardinal electors invariably elect the pope from among their number. The election was carried out by secret ballot ({{langx|la|per scrutinium}}). Due to the brief duration between the conclaves, the respective lists of cardinal electors are nearly identical.
Of the 129 members of the College of Cardinals at the time of the beginning of the first conclave, 114 cardinal electors were eligible to participate in the subsequent conclave.{{efn|Excluding Cardinal Paul Yü Pin, who died on 16 August 1978, after Paul VI's death but before the first conclave began{{sfnp|Lentz|2002|p=203}}}}{{cite news|last=Hofmann|first=Paul|author-link=Paul Hofmann|date=9 August 1978|title=Choice of Non-Italian Pope Held Possible but Unlikely|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1978/08/09/archives/choice-of-nonitalian-pope-held-possible-but-unlikely-dutchman-is-on.html|work=The New York Times|access-date=7 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180826105908/https://www.nytimes.com/1978/08/09/archives/choice-of-nonitalian-pope-held-possible-but-unlikely-dutchman-is-on.html|archive-date=26 August 2018|url-status=live}} Three cardinal electors did not attend, decreasing the number of participants to 111.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=686–687}} Two cardinal electors died in the time between the conclaves.{{sfnp|Lentz|2002|p=84}}{{sfnp|Lentz|2002|p=71}} Of the 126 members of the College of Cardinals at the time of the beginning of the second conclave, 111 cardinal electors were eligible to participate in the subsequent conclave;{{efn|Excluding Cardinal Bolesław Filipiak, who died on 14 October 1978, after John Paul I's death and on the day on which the second conclave began{{sfnp|Lentz|2002|p=71}}}}{{cite news|last=Koven|first=Ronald|date=14 October 1978|title=Electioneering in the Vatican Style|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1978/10/14/electioneering-in-the-vatican-style/12a313e5-e9bc-4fb7-89c1-24aac0530e21/|newspaper=The Washington Post|access-date=7 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181104113959/https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1978/10/14/electioneering-in-the-vatican-style/12a313e5-e9bc-4fb7-89c1-24aac0530e21/|archive-date=4 November 2018|url-status=live}} all of whom were in attendance.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=913–914}} The required two-thirds-plus-one supermajority needed to elect a pope in either conclave was {{#expr:floor((2/3)*111+1)}} votes.
Of the 112 cardinal electors who attended at least one of the two conclaves, 5 were cardinal bishops, 92 were cardinal priests, and 15 were cardinal deacons; 3 had been created cardinals by Pope Pius XII, 8 by Pope John XXIII, and 101 by Pope Paul VI; 28 worked in the service of the Holy See (such as in the Roman Curia), 77 were in pastoral ministry outside Rome, and 10 had retired.{{efn|Three cardinals, Franz König, Joseph Parecattil and Johannes Willebrands, had pastoral duties outside Rome while also holding positions in the Vatican; they are counted in both categories.}} The oldest cardinal elector in the conclaves was Joseph-Marie Trịnh Như Khuê, at the age of {{#ifeq:{{age in years|1898|12|11|1978|08|25}}|{{age in years|1898|12|11|1978|10|14}}|{{age in years|1898|12|11|1978|10|14}}|{{age in years|1898|12|11|1978|08|25}}–{{age in years|1898|12|11|1978|10|14}}}}, and the youngest was Jaime Lachica Sin, at the age of {{#ifeq:{{age in years|1928|08|31|1978|08|25}}|{{age in years|1928|08|31|1978|10|14}}|{{age in years|1928|08|31|1978|10|14}}|{{age in years|1928|08|31|1978|08|25}}–{{age in years|1928|08|31|1978|10|14}}}}. Another 15 cardinals were ineligible to participate in either conclave for reasons of age.
The cardinal electors entered the Sistine Chapel to begin the first conclave on 25 August 1978.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|p=684}} On 26 August, after four ballots over two days, they elected Cardinal Albino Luciani, the patriarch of Venice, who took the papal name John Paul I.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=690–691}} After his death 33 days into his papacy, the cardinal electors again entered the Sistine Chapel to begin the second conclave on 14 October.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|p=911}} On 16 October, after eight ballots over three days, they elected Cardinal Karol Wojtyła, the archbishop of Kraków, who took the papal name John Paul II.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=918–919}}
Cardinal electors
The College of Cardinals is divided into three orders{{snd}}cardinal bishops (CB), cardinal priests (CP), and cardinal deacons (CD){{snd}}with formal precedence in that sequence. This determines the order in which the cardinal electors entered the conclave, took the oath, and cast their ballots.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=686–687}}{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=913–914}} For cardinal bishops (except the Eastern Catholic patriarchs), the dean of the College of Cardinals is first in precedence, followed by the vice-dean, and then by the remainder in order of appointment as cardinal bishops. For cardinal bishops who are Eastern Catholic patriarchs, cardinal priests, and cardinal deacons, precedence is determined by the date of the consistory in which they were created cardinals and then by the order in which they appeared in the official announcement or bulletin.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=686–687}}{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=913–914}}
Two of the cardinal electors in the 1978 conclaves were from the Eastern Catholic Churches: Stéphanos I Sidarouss (Coptic) and Joseph Parecattil (Syro-Malabar). In both conclaves, the senior cardinal bishop, the senior cardinal priest, the senior cardinal deacon, and the junior cardinal deacon{{efn|These cardinals were assigned specific roles in the conclave, such as presiding over the conclave itself (the senior cardinal bishop) or announcing the election of the pope (the senior cardinal deacon).}} were, respectively, Jean-Marie Villot, Giuseppe Siri, Pericle Felici, and Mario Luigi Ciappi.{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=686–687}}{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|pp=913–914}} Villot was also the camerlengo of the Holy Roman Church, who was in charge of administering the Holy See during its vacancy.{{sfnp|Lentz|2002|p=198}}
The 112 cardinal electors in the table below are those who participated in at least one of the two conclaves. Two cardinals participated in only one: Albino Luciani, elected Pope John Paul I in the first conclave and whose death prompted the second conclave;{{sfnp|AAS 70|1978|p=797}} and John Joseph Wright, who did not participate in the first conclave for health reasons owing to surgery.{{cite news|date=9 August 1978|title=Leading U.S. Cardinal To Miss Papal Voting|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1978/08/09/archives/leading-us-cardinal-to-miss-papal-voting.html|work=The New York Times|access-date=7 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180622201754/https://www.nytimes.com/1978/08/09/archives/leading-us-cardinal-to-miss-papal-voting.html|archive-date=22 June 2018|url-status=live}} Another two cardinal electors did not participate in the first conclave; both died before the second conclave began.{{sfnp|Lentz|2002|p=84}}{{sfnp|Lentz|2002|p=71}} The data below are as of 25 August 1978 or 14 October 1978, the respective dates on which the conclaves began. Age ranges are given for some cardinals in the case of any differences in age as at the beginning of the two conclaves. All cardinals are of the Latin Church unless otherwise stated. Cardinals belonging to institutes of consecrated life or to societies of apostolic life are indicated by the relevant post-nominal letters.
