You can't escape them. They are nonsense.

One goes like this "Hey, you know all those amendments that have been passed over the years that you didn't like? Yeh, this is one of them too. So trust us and vote against it". I'm not kidding; that's the commercial.

The other shows the text of the amendment and highlights words like "viability", "health care provider" and "prohibit" and opines "These words could mean virtually anything.." and continues with nonsense. The text is not ambiguous or vague:

Amendment to Limit Government Interference with Abortion: No law shall prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient’s health, as determined by the patient’s healthcare provider. This amendment does not change the Legislature’s constitutional authority to require notification to a parent or guardian before a minor has an abortion.

The commercial even claims it would prevent parental consent laws when it says 100% the opposite right there in the text.

They are so stuck on "getting the Libs" that they can't even understand that abortion isn't a conservative/liberal thing and apparently think that governing from the minority to appease the extreme religious right is the winning ticket.
