To identify supporting details that bolster the central idea of the paragraph regarding the women's suffrage movement, we can analyze the information provided. The central idea revolves around the emergence and key events of the women's suffrage movement in the mid-nineteenth century.

Supporting details include:

1. "A major milestone for the movement occurred in 1848, when Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott organized the first convention for women’s rights in Seneca Falls, New York." - This detail highlights a significant event that marked the escalation of the movement.

2. "They came up with the idea for the women’s rights convention after women were barred from participating in the 1840 World Anti-Slavery Convention in London." - This detail explains the motivation behind the convention, showing the struggles women faced in the broader context of social reform.

While the statement about the advocacy for voting rights is part of the introductory idea, the explicit actions (the convention) and the context (barriers faced) serve as stronger supporting details.

Therefore, the selected supporting details are:

• "A major milestone for the movement occurred in 1848, when Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott organized the first convention for women’s rights in Seneca Falls, New York."
