AS A PO/PM of sitewide products I WANT all duplicate events removed from our product's code SO THAT we aren't charged by Google Analytics twice for the 'same' event

Updated the description to strike out events-apply-filter-clicked; it was removed between the time the spreadsheet was created and me picking up this ticket.

@FranECross I learned yesterday that form components (e.g. dropdowns, text inputs, etc.) are opt in for analytics (to avoid PHI/PII being captured). Two questions in bold below:

When I...

• go to https://www.va.gov/outreach-and-events/events
• filter by Custom date range
• enter an invalid date range on events filtering
• click "Apply filter"

...I get two events: one is for clicking the "Apply filter" button and the other is for the invalid date range. Should we keep both events?

Similar situation when you filter by custom date range and don't fill out the fields, then click "Apply filter." You get a click event for the "Apply filter" button and the event for an empty filter. Should we keep both events?

@randimays Thanks for the research and info! I don't believe we need the event for the invalid date range.
