Therefore, neither of the other options (B) 1982 when voters rejected proposals for a convention, (D) 1971 when Texas legislators were considering calling a convention but ultimately did not, nor (A) 1996 or (E) 2000 when there were no serious discussions of a constitutional convention, are correct.
