When I refresh the page a pageview event will go through. On a button click I have the following in a function

ReactGA.pageview("/?summoner1=" + person1 + "&summoner2=" + person2);

this is in a function and this function gets called when i push submit. even though the page doesnt change I have the url change through history.pushState.

looking at the network tab i see that the request is being sent and its giving me a 200

the same goes for when I try to trigger an event like this

ReactGA.event({
  category: "submit",
  action: "submit action",
  label: "submit label",
});

this is also in a function where a button calls it through the onclick

however the onlything ga is showing me is initial page loads. any ideas on what im doing wrong?
